Hi Han,
If you'll pardon my French, what the f**k are you talking about?
You on the Cristo or Netscream payroll or something? Are you confusing
firewalls with routers?
You can choose a Route or NAT relationship between any two networks. If
you want a dumb, low level, over priced device, you're welcome to spend
the $36K for the Netscream -- I guess you're willing to pay that premium
for NetBEUI support? You'd think for that price they would have
completed MS's work to get JetBEUI in the box too.
Tom

I'm very disapointed at ISA2004. I thought Microsoft would have build in
the
possibility to disable the #%$&$ NAT which they didn't at least not at
the
cost of loosing filtering at the higher levels. Therefore in my opinion
it
makes ISA2004 less suitable as an edge firewall in a scenario that uses
a DMZ
between 2 firewalls. That so called routed is still NAT. I don't like
the
argument that in the 'routed' scenario the ip-adresses are 'hidden' from
the
internet, that is security by obscurity which is poor man's security.
Han.
