RE: [FW1] FW-1, can it support 2 leased line connection to Intern et

[Peter Goodridge <petegdr@FW1-NOSPAMyahoo.com>]

If you have a router outside the firewall, you'd
probably be better off setting that up to handle the
two connections and not even involve checkpoint. 
You'll keep your firewall cleaner, let the router do
what it does best.

Also if you are going though two different ISPs you'll
need to run BGP4 on the router.

HTH,
Pete Goodridge
