Hi again,
Ok I will try to explain more.
Wireless radio modem my default gateway for router (which I want to get
installed)
Of couse I can connect radio modem straight to my FW and thats it.
But in this case I can connect only one FW (I have two one is production and
second one is backup/testing)
I will draw a small pcture what I want.
(I speak only about real Internet IP's.)
Wireless radio modem
--
| Ip 1.1.1.1 |
--
|
--
| Linux router| what I want to install (with two ethernet cards)
--
|
-
| Hub/switch|--- | FW 1 |-- Local network (SMTP, POP, WEB, FTP servers and
etc)
- -
|
-
| FW 2 |
-
|
Local network
How you see from my draw I would like to make a router with Linux box (I
have an old PC for that
and no neds to buy some Cisco or another router.
