Other than an LAN that has no Internet connection and no WAP (and good locks on all the doors), I cannot think of a topology that is *itself* secure. Security resides mainly in the firewall rulesets, not in the actual network topology ... though certainly some topologies are easier to secure than others (and there are bozo-level configurations that cannot conceivably be made secure by any standard). In any case, security is not a yes-or-no standard; the tradeoff between safety and usability is a balancing act.Everyone, I'd like to see us create a set of network diagrams that illustrate secure topologies. Is anyone willing to work on this task?
So perhaps you could expand on this a bit, to give a better sense of what you have in mind?
P.S. What are "Dia source files"?
