1774.1 | Some support, but not with the GUI | NETRIX::"[email protected]" | Sebastian L�lsdorf | Wed Feb 05 1997 07:19 | 25 |
| Digital UNIX supports more than 2 network interfaces
(maximum depends on number of free slots in your Alpha).
Firewall software supports this by screend or gxd configuration.
It is called "green net support", shortly described in Appendix E of
the "Internet Firewall Service Delivery Guide", QS-SEAA9-CP, Version 1.1,
May 1996 by Ken Linell.
The Application Gateways don't support it in their policies, not even
with the custom policies. But it might be possible to edit the acl-files
manually. See the man pages (man 4 access_control_file).
However NOTE: Green net support canNOT be configured with the GUI at all!
Once you have done it under the covers, the GUI will mislead you: You don't
see any longer what's really allowed to go through the firewall, but you
see something different, just what the GUI is showing to you. Using the GUI
later on will destroy the changes you've made. And the customer feels anxious
about the future firewall administration.
(I have asked Sarah Keating recently whether this will change with V3.0:
her answer was no.)

| There are several possible configurations here - green net is one of
them.
I have also got a customer who has two red interfaces - he has a
connection to a University and another to an ISP. I had to build one
of them normally, and then handcraft the other. It was "fun".

| I assume Green Net can either be the Perimeter Network where all the
Proxy Servers and other Bastion Host(s) are located or actually a second
network within your Corporation.

| re .3
The firewall service delivery guide is located on my anonymous ftp
server (beech.crl.dec.com) in the /pub directory as fwsdg.ps.
re .1
As a minor correction, I wrote the service delivery guide.
