Title: Firewall for Leased and ADSL links

not quite what you asked for, but...

Lots of routers allow for 2 separate WAN connections, usually 1 is set as a backup, but you could probably use a little finesse to make it do what you want.

It wouldn't surprise me if your cisco2600 has some upgrade option similar to this.

Subject: [FW1] Firewall for Leased and ADSL links

Hi guys,
Im a newbie to this list. Im looking for someone from this list to help me out in finding a solution to my problem.

I have two links to the Internet.  One is a leased 128Kbps link that uses the Cisco 2600 routers. Another one is an 1.6 Mbps ADSL link on a copper wire terminated onto a Megabit Gear TE/4 ADSL router/modem(?). The leased-link guys gave us a set of global static IP addresses we make use of it for our mail and web servers whereas the ADSL guys they are dynamicly assigned.

My higherups wants to have a firewall solution. I do not know how I can run both onto a single firewall though they both have the 10/100 Ethernet output.

My question is that is there a firewall that can get feed from multiple default gateways Or can a firewall sit and screen on multihomed server. (multiple NICs)

Or should go for two instance of firewall?

Please help me out on this horrifying issue.

regards
suresh
