Hi, I am trying to setup a bridging firewall and have some questions. In a bridge, it doesn't seem neccasary to configure any IP's for the 2 interfaces. However, I would like to remotely manage my bridging firewall. If so, does the interface attached to the Internet [router] need the same address as the router or just another address from my segment. I think its the later but my bridging fundamentals are hazy :-( Would doing so allow me to telnet/ssh into the bridging firewall box or do I need another interface to get in and leave the original 2 interfaces unconfigured Also, if I have two different leased lines [different blocks], can I use a 4 port NIC like a D-LINK DFE 570 to setup a single machine as a bridging firewall for both networks [using different rulesets] Thanks, ymg -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://www.graffiti.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ipfw" in the body of the message
