Greetings,
Hello, I have currently 2 PIX 525 Firewalls configured for failover.
Our ISP Failed taking our site down the other day, and that has peeked our interest in BGP.
I am by no means a PIX Expert so forgive me if this is a stupid quesion, but... Do I need Additional routers to impliment BGP? The firewalls are brand new and runing version 6.3(3). From my understanding there is load balancing capability in Version 7 and I have extra Ethernet ports on my PIX. So I wasn't sure if I could just connect 2 drops from each ISP on to my PIX's if I upgraded to Version
If I do need something in front of my firewall's can I use my
4948-10G's on it's own VLAN? I have the Enhance image that supports BGP and IBGP. Is this a 'safe' thing to do?
Thanks, Vince
