I am about to have to change ISPs as well, and are going to DSL with 30
static IP.
Am I going to have to use a nat device in front of the ISA (2000) as
well?
Or will the static IP fix that problem?
I have my web sites, terminal servers, et all published through ISA and
don't want an extra device screwing all that up.
Thanks

Isn't this how it should be .

I have a Netopia DSL router in front of ISA .. and works fine . 
The router has one public for its interface. All other public ips are
configured on external interface of ISA and configured for publishing .

Double-post.
Need some help getting ISA to work on a DSL connection. The only way I
seem to be able to get to the Internet is if I put my linksys in front
of the ISA server and configure the external NIC to use the IP of the
linksys as its gateway. I also had to provide it with a static internal
IP. I'm thinking this will come back to haunt me once I begin publishing
servers and services. I've read the articles on configuring DSL, the
network interfaces, and ISA to support PPOE and have tried everything
with no success. If I don't use the linksys I'm not able to access the
Internet on any of my secureNAT clients. I seem to recall there being
some talk on this subject and wonder if anyone can advise on the pros
and cons of this type of setup, one that uses a linksys in front of the
firewall. I'm thinking I'd be better of going with a hardware solutions
or a linux firewall solution. Any responses are appreciated. 

TIA
