We just purchased a 1605 Cisco router. As near as I can tell, the firewall
feature set is optional (and wasn't included as part of the basic system).
I'd like to have it, but I'm not sure I absolutely need it since my
requirements are simple.
Our private network uses class C network addresses (so NAT is enabled on the
router). I mainly want to do IP forwarding to certain machines on the
private network (such as designating which machines receive SMTP or HTTP
port traffic). I also need to forward certain IP protocols (such as GRE).
The second WAN port on the 1605 will be used for a DMZ network.
Does the 1605 support port and IP protocol forwarding as it was shipped? Or
do I need the firewall software option?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
