I would jump at any chance to put the LAN behind ISA and on a Private IP
subnet.

 

When you have to have the LAN with Public IP addresses is when you get to do
more work.

Hi Chaps,

 

We're lucky enough to be on an academic network that has offered us an
entire subnet of public IP's. Our setup consists of about 25 desktops, and
four servers. I'm agonising whether or not to put the entire network within
a Private subnet. My gut says yes as it makes it much easier to hide
everything behind our ISA firewall and just publish OWA/RPC over HTTP/SMTP.
But I'm wondering, is this possible or even advisable on network that
consists entirely of public IP's? I suppose it would require the ISA
Firewall to also act as a router. Apologies for any misuse of terminology. 

 

Note that our vlan isn't totally exposed to the internet, the University
provide basic protection. Though we're meaning to improve this using ISA
2004.

 

Your insight is appreciated,

 

Cheers,

 

Jason
