Re: [leaf-user] many non contiguous subnets on the same interface

2003-10-25 Thread Erich Titl

maybe my drawing was not completely clear.

The outer firewall is NATting whereas the inner is routing to keep the DMZ 
and the secure network apart. We were planning to provide server hosting 
for remote networks but the design included dual hosted servers with a SAN 
device on the seconf dentwork. I thrashed this for secuirity reasons 
because any attacker on the remote parts of the net would automatically be 
invited to the sacred shrine.

Anyway, last office day today, tomorrow sailing along the Lycian coast.

Hope to hear from all of you in 2 weeks time

And

Thanks

Erich

Hmmm... so it is running proxy-arp on the inner firewall (assuming this
is the only way you can filter w/o routing).
 I know that routing is going to be tricky, we will probably drop the
 extrudet subnet idea as it is too big a security risk to have a subnet
 extended right into the heart of our secure zone.
Yeah, if the firewall is answering a /16, then it is likely not the
best idea to keep them on the same subnet. It might be a better idea
to proxy-arp the DMZ and route/NAT the internal net which keeps the
DMZ on a seperate subnet behind the firewall.

Your largest problem is going to be routing unless the router is on a 
192.168.0.0/16 subnet. Your NetBIOS traffic can't be routed on a /24
or through the second stage of NAT (between the DMZ/internal net) 
without NAT-transversal.
