Hi Marvin,

Just put a crummy 30 dollar Dlink DSL NAT device in front of the ISA
firewall. That's what I do. 

HTH,

Subject: [isalist] Linksys in front of ISA...

http://www.ISAserver.org

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
