Re: Linksys Router with SBS question



ISA Server needs two NIC's to function properly as a Firewall. But back to
your orignal question, I thought this was a Hardware VPN using Linksys
Routers so what does ISA have to do with this? The VPN connection between
your location and your bosses home location has nothing to do with SBS ISA
Server if you are implementing a Hardware VPN Solution.
