The reason you would implement two different firewalls is in case one was hacked the hackers would be able to use the same exploit on the second one. Normally I see a second firewall only if there is a DMZ and you have another network below your public network. --- Jennifer Fountain <jfountain () rbinc com> wrote:
Hi all: I am designing a "service" network that is separate from our "production" network. Our web sites, email server, etc will be utilizing this network; whereas, internet traffic and vpn traffic will utilize the other. My question is in regards to firewalls. Currently, I am using a PIX for my production network. From what I have been hearing, it is recommended to use two different firewall vendors in this situation. Is this a general consensus with all of you? Or do you think having another pix would be ok? Thanks for any info! Kind Regards, Jennifer
