ProSafe Dual WAN Gigabit Firewall with SSL & IPsec VPN FVS336G Reference Manual
C-2
Network Planning for Dual WAN Ports
v1.0, March 2009
For rollover mode, protocol binding does not apply.
For load balancing mode, decide which protocols should be bound to a specific
WAN port.
You can also add your own service protocols to the list.
3.
Set up your accounts
a.
Obtain active Internet services such as cable or DSL broadband accounts and locate the
Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration information.
In this document, the WAN side of the network is presumed to be provisioned as
shown in
Figure C-1
, with two ISPs connected to the VPN firewall through separate
physical facilities.
Each WAN port must be configured separately whether you are using a separate ISP
for each WAN port or are having the traffic of both WAN ports routed through the
same ISP.
If your ISP charges by the volume of data traffic each month, consider enabling a
traffic meter to monitor or limit your traffic.
b.
Contact a Dynamic DNS Service and register fully qualified domain names for one or both
WAN ports.
3.
Plan your network management approach
The VPN firewall is capable of being managed remotely, but this feature must be enabled
locally after each factory default reset.
You are strongly advised to change the default management
password to a strong
password before enabling remote management.
