SOHO server setup scenerio "Firewall from hell"
The object being to keep it simple but keep it secure....
Assuming five computers
comp A = firewall w/ X NIC's
comp B = mail server
comp C = web server
comp D = workstation D
comp E = workstation E
also assuming I have dsl modem and one hub
internet connection plugged into DSL modem.
DSL modem plugged into comp A (firewall)
Comp A, D & E plugged into hub
Comp B & C plugged into comp A
this would mean comp A would require 4 NIC's (DSL, comp B, comp C and
hub)
would this be easier to set up firewall rules for to keep
mail, web, intranet secure?? or am I missing something very simple?
Questions, questions, questions.
Thanks,
