I've never worked witha PIX before so I am in new territory.
I Want to drop the pix into my existing network without changing any internal addresses and not using NAT. We are in a university environment and have public static assigned IPs. I just want to protect our segment from the rest of the university network as well as the public internet.
When I try to set the internal and external interfaces on the same subnet I get a message telling me I cannot do that. I changed the subnet mask for the external interface, and was able to set the IP's, but I don't seem to be able to get out to the internet.
Example: Assigned subnet: 199.104.15.x university subnet 199.104.x.x. I want to have the external interface be 199.104.15.10, and the internal be 199.104.15.11.
All the clients have a 199.104.15.x public address.
So where do I start?
Thanks for taking time to help a newbee.
