What Firewall in front of two webservers (two public IP's)

Feb 28, 2007 1 Replies

I have two (and more) public IP addresses (static) from my Internet supplier.



One firewall should be able to handle more that one public IP. Specific ports (80 and 443) on IP 80.xx.xx.12 should be delivered to



192.168.1.10. Specific ports (80 and 443) on IP 80.xx.xx.13 should be delivered to
192.168.1.11.

Logics: Firewall-1 (80.xx.xx.12) ? Webserver-1 (192.168.1.10) Firewall-1 (80.xx.xx.13) ? Webserver-2 (192.168.1.11)



The question is now, what firewall do I need? PIX or ASA? Does some of the products have ?webserver-security? functionality?

Hi Martin,

You might want to check Linksys (a cisco Systems co.)

the have great products for decent pricing. Depending on your inbound connection (cable, xDsl etc), your connectivity needs (CAT5, 802.11x), purpose (soho, smb) I can not recommend a particular products, any router gateway of their line would fulfill you technical specs.
