Topic: e-smith and a DMZ

[Tim Perreault]

I am interested in finding some information or help with setting up a DMZ (demiliterized Zone). consisting of 3 nics. I know some routers have this capability. I want one to go to the internet for a gateway, one for our users LAN, and the 3rd nic for a private radiology network we have at work here. The radiology network has it's own connection to the internet so that would be one nic. So I'd want 2 nics on the DMZ and the third on the hospital LAN. Any sugestions or help would be greatly appreciated.  The purpose of this is so i can segment the radiology private network and their internet connection from the regular LAN. Plus use the SME 5.5 for a secure gateway. Tough Challange I know, but a worthy one.

Thanks
Tim

You might look at IPCop or Smoothwall if all you need is a Firewall with DMZ access.  E-Smith is great if you actually need the other features (Mail, Web, FTP, PPTP, etc), but its overkill for a simple firewall.
