RE: [FW1] Slow Performance after Changing IP address

[Mike Glassman - Admin <admin@FW1-NOSPAMiaa.gov.il>]

I meant all of them.

External, Internal, DMZ etc.

I have 8 "legs" and all of the IP addresses that are defined for those
"legs" are in the hosts file. If a leg has more then one IP address assigned
to it, all those are in there.
