Dear "Cthulu, CCIE Candidate""
a) Correct me if I'm wrong: You can not make "conventional" router's to
pick up DHCP address on the interface, though you can do this with DSL
routers and latest flavours of IOS for this routers

CR: On a real world, production network, no. However, in a lab setting,
just for the heck and convenience of it, it would be cool to have the
routers get an IP address always reserved for them from a lo

this could cost $$$. Anyway, the more you allow anything (including people)
to interact with the outside world (outside of itself) the more verlnerable
it becomes to subversion. A philosophy, not a hard fact. A paranoi
PIX is a hardware firewall device, in simple terms, each interface is
considered a
seperate network, PIX does routing as well ( inside interface -> inside
interface,
inside interface -> outside interface & outside interface -> inside
interface)
you will need to create static and conduit stateme
Hey, Rodgers,
Thanks! Hope you don't mind, you are the only one to respond directly, can
you answer these?
Why would getting an IP address dynamically assigned to the PIX's outside
interface be a security risk?
Also, if the PIX can't act as a DHCP server, what the heck is this command
for:
Nope. Besides that would be contrary to good security policy.
