The proxy server cannot be inside the DMZ. You will only want to have public servers on it. This setup is very good, but in some cases (low money) the NIC2 can be the same as NIC1.

Is the same question that you gave me before... We are not supposing that the firewall will be broken ... generally people use the same firewall in all the places. []`s Daniel B.

The Gartner Group just put Neoteris in the top of its Magic Quadrant, while InStat has confirmed Neoteris as the leader in marketshare. Find out why, and see how you can get plug-n-play secure remote access in about an hour, with no client, server changes, or ongoing maintenance.
