Hi,
With the greatest of respect, the wrong thing that you're doing is bypassing
your firewall!!! Why spend all that money on huge, expensive titanium
padlocks if you're going to leave them undone?!
1) Remove the modems.
2) Buy a standalone PC. Put a modem in it but NO network card.
3) Stick a skull and cross bones on it and never trust it again.
Well okay, perhaps number 3 is a bit extreme, but you get my point? ;-)

Subject: [FW1] modem internet access on the internal LAN
Hi everybody,
Some users of the internal LAN of our firewall still use modems to
connect to internet (used to check the visibility of our web sites from
outside the firewall, mainly).
On their PC, they have an Ethernet card and a ISDN card.
As I saw some of IP addresses they got from the modem ISP in the IP
database of the FW, it means that their PC is leaking its ISDN's IP on
the ethernet LAN...
Am I wrong somewhere ?
May this be corrected by some configuration on the PC ?
TIA,
Karim AMRANI
