898.0. "Firewall in a site ?" by OSITEL::rtont2.rto.dec.com::rtoms::schaefere (SI-Office) Fri Feb 21 1997 12:21

 Hi all,

 I have a situation where I wanted to put two Exchange (V5.0) servers
 on the same LAN in one Site. Now for security reasons (external smtp and
 http) the customer wants to have a firewall between the two servers.

 questions:
	is this possible from a technical point of view, does the
	RPC communication between two servers in a site work
	over the firewall ?

	does it make sense, i.e. is a reasonable speed possible
	for the server - server connect over the firewall ?

	is it better to form two sites and connect these with
	 - which connector ?

 regards, Erich
