Deploying Honeypots for Home Network Monitoring

[infolookup at gmail.com (infolookup at gmail.com)]

Thanks everyone for the great input keep them comming. This is the setup
I am thinking about:

Currently I have a FW, I will connect a second FW (Smoothwall or Astaro)from the DMZ interface of the first FW, then 
connect a cisco 2900 switch to an interface on the second FW then connect the Honeypot to that switch.

It would be nice to here how others are setting up there labs.

I used to NAT all nasty traffic coming to my FW to a box running Nepenthes and monitor it. Running un-patched Windows 
is much better becuase you get the real stuff. Make sure to secure them by a FW or get a separate DSL line.

 Hello All:

I have been doing some brief research on Honeypots, and Botnets after looking at my Firewall logs and noticing a few 
specify IP address that try to attack my network around the clock.
 
?This has caused me to look into ?a test environment where I could better monitor these activities.

Any and all suggestions are welcomed.
