Depending on his upstream, the ethernet connection he gets may be off of one of their backbone routers. In that case, it would not be wise for them to load it up with filters for each client. Let it do it's job as a backbone router and have the customer get a 2514 or a *nix box with some sort of firewall util. ------- John Fraizer (root) | __ _ | The System Administrator | / / (_)__ __ ____ __ | The choice mailto:root () EnterZone Net | / /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / | of a GNU http://www.EnterZone.Net/ | /____/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ | Generation A 486 is a terrible thing to waste...
