Hi Mario

 

I have an ISA and PIX firewall connected "back-to-back". Here is my config:

 

LAN --> ISA --> PIX --> Internet

 

On the PIX's inside interface I have setup an access-list to permit ALL
traffic from the ISA's external interface. This is to prevent me from having
to duplicate all rules on ISA and PIX. There are more configuration settings
that need to be implemented but this is pretty much the kernel of the whole
matter.

 

The beauty of this solution is that for anyone to actively hack me, they
need to know BOTH firewalls. Also if there are any Denial of Service attacks
etc, I simply block those requests on my PIX without ever troubling my ISA.

 

All in all I am very happy with our solution as I believe it offers me the
best of both world - flexibility and control!

 

Cheers

William R.
