1 to 1 Nat is not as secure as port access rules because 1 to 1 Nat maps an external IP to an internal ip. in essence it opens all ports to that internal address. so if u r doing 1 web, 1 email and 1 ftp server (can be the same box or not) u would set up the mx and a-records to point to the SonicWALL wan address and set up rules to allow that particular traffic. however if u have multiple servers for the same service i.e. 2 web servers u would then need to use 1 to 1 Nat on at least 1 of the web servers. the firewall should protect the 1 to 1 Nat machine but there is another ip address for crackers to attack.
anyone correct me if I'm wrong. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Marcus D.
