Netscreen 5400 configuration problem

May 19, 2006 2 Replies

Hi all,



I'm trying to configure 2 ports of the 5400 firewall with the same subnet but I dont know how. I have the same subnet in diferent buildings so I have to connect the 2 buildings to 2 different ports...and aggregate is not the answer.



Can someone please help me ?



Thank you, Paulo Vilar



NetScreens don't support that configuration. Think about it, what would the routing table look like?

-Russ.

One of the best features (in my opinion) of the NetScreen firewalls is the ability to have multiple interfaces with the same, or overlapping network ranges. This is possible by NetScreen supporting multiple virtual routers (VRs)

For the firewall to support overlapping ranges you will need to configure the two interfaces on a different VRs.

The routing is not so much of an issue, but it is the NAT that will need careful consideration!
