This is totally false.

Hi Everyone I noticed something's not right in a particular firewall config file. I do not understand why LAN is configured as Untrusted and External (WAN) as Trusted. I brought this up as a security concern to one of my colleague, our senior technical guru. He told me that things are configured this way because there is a hardware limitation with the old watchguard firebox 700. At that time, when they tried to configure LAN as Trusted and External as Untrusted, they found out that network traffic from Untrusted to Trusted cannot flow through. I would like to know if others have encountered the same experience so that I can determine if what he said is really true.. -JC ________________________________________________________________________ ____________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
