Hi List, Our in house network configuration is using FreeBSD for our firewall. We currently have it setup with 3 interfaces a public, private and DMZ. We our moving to a new facility and our network engineer says nobody is using DMZs any more and wants to just do NAT redirects from our FreeBSD firewall to servers on the private network. These servers were on the DMZ in our current configuration. Does this make sense? Is it true that DMZ's have fallen out of vogue? Sorry for the off topic post. Thanks for any input, Steve -- "They that give up essential liberty to obtain temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
