I don't know about the 515 but a PIX can do PAT. I have done this a few time
and always put the FE Server inside with the BE Servers. FE/BE is only
useful to load balance protocols. Has no security benefit. For that use the
PIX and ISA(s).

Subject: Exchange 2000 OWA & Cisco PIX 515



Hello Everyone,

Here is a scenario:

Exchange 2000 FE and BE configuration behind a PIX 515 firewall. FE
Server is just for OWA, so that External users can access their email
offsite. It works perfectly with the necessary ports enabled(
80,443,143,993).However, it is not desirable to leave 80 accessible due
to potential security risk.
My long-term solution is an ISA Server in the DMZ.
In the interim, is there a way to configure the PIX 515 for Port address
translation? I am speculating that on the PIX we can assign a different
port number( e.g. port 8800..any port)and let the PIX
resolve/translate/forward all requests to Port 80. My Network
Administrator does not think the PIX 515 is compliant. Is there anyone
in this group who has a similar environment?

Thanks and happy Friday!

Raj
