We currently have 3 webservers 2 PCAnywhere & 1 GroupWise webaccess connections, all have inbound tunnels and mapped static addresses. Given what you and Felix say then the static addresses are not needed ?? (Thanks for speedy reply......)
>>> Arne Moller-Hansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 24/07/02 12:43:46 >>> You use static maps to "direct" outbound connections to different aliases on the EXT side of the firewall. This is useful in many cases. One that was recently brought up on this mailing list is that two people behind the firewall needs to make VPN connection to the same VPN concentrator. Since two connections both using UDP port 500 as source port can't exist on the same alias, you could direct one of the users to go through another alias with a static adress mapping. Another issue where it is commonly used is if a front-end mailserver/mimesweeper sends mail back through an inbound tunnel to a back-end server on the PRO interface. The backend server may expect this mail coming from a separate alias on the PRO interface, so you define a static mapping saying that when a connection is from the frontend server, it should appear on alias x.y.z.12. I'm sure there are 100's of examples of situations where this might be handy, this was just two examples.
