You can use a couple of routers to put the second gauntlet "off to one
side". Then it works as two independent firewalls with the second one being
slightly less likely to get packets (more expensive route). The sites I've
seen it setup on it works without a glitch - better than the problems you
get trying to keep state tables synched :}...
