Creating a route to allow SEP Live updates through firewall

NewnanIT — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 16:21:46 +0000

I have a Watchguard 550e that doesn’t allow SEP Live updates to go through. HTTP Proxy is activated, how can I create a route to allow Live update through the firewall? I need to get this done ASAP! This is on a Windows Advanced Server 2003 R2.

What should I do with this Watchguard Firebox 500? I don’t have the system manager for it…

Ingram87 — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 21:16:06 +0000

I was given a Watchguard Firebox 500 today. The model number is F2064N. Apperantly, you need the Firebox System Manager application to manage these devices, which is only available if you have the device actiavated on your watchguard account. Unfortunately, I don’t have that.

Should I destroy it with a chainsaw, or is there some type of open source software I can load onto this? dd-wrt came to mind at first, however, it doesn’t support this device.

Adding Watchguard static IP for new Exchange server

Sethmorris — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 18:14:11 +0000

I’m having a total brain fart. I set this up before but can’t remember how I did it. I have one static IP for External interface. I have a second static IP set to my MX address.

.114 is my main external IP. I have .115 as my mail.server.com record.

I tried adding the .115 as a secondary IP to the .114 but it won’t let me. Am I going about this the wrong way?

OWA in DMZ or not?

Guysmiley — Wed, 06 May 2009 12:58:09 +0000

Hi. I run a 2003SP2 Exchange environment with a single Exchange server and a single OWA server in a DMZ. Over the years I’ve had to open more and more holes between the two networks as I’ve added features, etc. Someone told me I should bring the OWA server back behind the firewall and only open ports 80 and 443 to the outside. I would be usign NAT on my firewall too btw. Which method is more secure for a smaller environment?

Sonicwall vs watchguard

Mtupker — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 17:16:43 +0000

I saw one other question like this that was posted back in 2006 so I’m going to ask for more current thoughts. We are at the point where it will cost less to get a new UTM firewall with years subscription than it would to renew the non-UTM license on our sidewinder g2. I was wondering what peoples thoughts were about either sonicwall or watchguard firewalls. Specifically the NSA 5000 or x6500e? I’ve seen a lot of complaints and good things about both.
