Maarten, thanks for your reply.
I thought of your option 1 right after posting this message. However, for
now I do not want to mess about with a switch/hub between my router and
firewall to get this device connected.
Your option 3 is closest to my initial idea however, I have no idea how
to set this up. How do I configure the interface (as PSN or Protected,
what IP address)?
And how do I setup bridging? How do I define the Pass Through Filters?
We're on 3.7.1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can configure a bridge in the Basic Configuration -> Network
Information screen. The bridge setup is near the bottom of the screen.
Simply enter a logical name for your bridge, type external, select your
external interface in the "interface" box, and select the free network
interface you'd like to use in the NIC field.
After that, save this section and create pass through filters allowing the
traffic you'd like to pass through your firewall to the machine. To allow
all traffic, create two filters; one from your external interface, source
address ANY_IP, with the IP address of the machine in question as
destination. The second filter should be from your newly configured bridge
interface, source address of the machine, and destination ANY_IP.
Thanks for holding my hand Maarten :-)
It seems to work but only for the outgoing part of the connection. This
might as well have to do with incompatible video conference devices as we
have seen this happen with ISDN as well. Oh well.....
Thanks again,
Benno
