Opening ports on pix to APC Symmetra

I have a two part question and i would greatly appreciate any answers. I have an APC Symmetra on the internal network which has ip address 192.168.2.11. I have a of couple servers on the DMZ using ip address 10.0.0.5 and 10.0.0.6. I am trying to install the APC powerchute software on these DMZ servers but i need to open port 80, 3052, 161 and 162 for these DMZ servers to talk to the APC Symmetra. I would like to know if this will create a security vulnerabilty? If it's okay to do this is it possible to do this using just private addresses or should i create a static mapping of the Symmetra private address to a public address first?

Thanks for any help

Hi,

it should not be a problem, you can use statics and acls in the dmz side to make sure that only allowed ports/ip are accessible on the inside.

thx
