Help with ACLs on home 2600/Cable modem connection

[rileymartin]

Hi,

I'm new to Cisco IOS and routers and have a basic 2600 router config that I am using on my home cablemodem connection and I was hoping I could get some recommendations or suggestions on anything more I should do to protect my network. I setup an Exchange server for SMTP email, I want to be able to hit the same server with remote desktop and www. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've attached my config.

Here is a suggestion. Use CBAC:

ip inspect name CBAC tcp alert on audit-trail on

ip inspect name CBAC udp alert on audit-trail on

ip inspect name CBAC icmp alert on audit-trail on

ip inspect name CBAC http alert on audit-trail on

ip inspect name CBAC smtp alert on audit-trail on

interface F0/0

ip inspect CBAC out

Thanks for the reply.

I'm not familiar with 'ip inspect'. Would I use that instead of access lists? Do you know of a good link where I can read/learn about using ip inspect? Thanks again.
