RE: [FW1] DNS on firewall gateway



I think its generally recommended that you never install DNS on the firewall
itself. They may mention  that you can do it, but I would advise against it.
My rule of thumb is that you never run anything on the firewall that is not
the firewall. I would recommend that you place an external DNS machine on a
DMZ and write specific rules to allow traffic to and from it (and disable
the control properties for DNS).

Subject: [FW1] DNS on firewall gateway



In the Architecture and Administration guide of Firewall-1 Pg 354 there is
some mentioning of dual DNS, where the external DNS can reside on the
firewalled gateway.

Is there any documentation available on how to implement this?

Regards,


Kenneth
