Hi,

the answer of Paul Gracy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> gives the right point.

Using  Linux and the  IP-Chains  package you are able to do this on one  PC-box.
There you then establish the firewall with masquerading via the official IP.

I was told it's  running  fine on LANs  like  yours.  The way of using  the user
defined  chain-rules  is tricky - they change  port  numbers  within the chain -
beware!

You should be in use of linux-kernel-2.2.x - or you have to patch 2.0.x before.

Read the 'Linux  IPCHAINS-HOWTO'  by Paul Russel  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
v1.0.5 and later.  Within LDP you will find additionaly  things on masquerading.
         www.rustcorp.com - web site     ftp.rustcorp.com - ftp site

You will have to reconfigure your linux-kernel,  take use of 'optimize as router
not host', and recompile it.  Some work - but it's free stuff.

You may have to read this mail in the history list of lists.gnac.net as well:

There should be some real answers on this also.

The biggest problem with this design is not the firewall.. it's the routing
table... 

I've never tried, but I think PIX might be able to do this based on
aliases... but you really need to rethink your design and get your subnets
separated somehow or you're going to have issues, no matter whose firewall
you choose. 

IMHO.

Hi,
Do anyone know what firewall product that can do this

Internet -------  Router -------- Firewall ----- Internal

where
Router ip is a.b.c.1
Firewall ip is a.b.c.2
Internal ip is a class C register IP addresss a.b.c.3 -- a.b.c.254

The normal firewall product is require to have one register IP and
the internal lan is in private IP address. And all internet services is
go
through the proxy Firewall.
What I am looking for is that the Firewall can able to protected the
internal Lan  with the internal ip is a range of register internet IP
address instead of the private IP (192.168.x.x.). The Firewall is only
open
up those allow services to go out like http, ftp ,  etc...

The Firewall can be software or hardware solution.

Thanks.
