Why would you want to? Switches are very cheap. Get two and completely seperate your dmz and external network with your firewall. Hal -----Original Message----- From: McDougle, Clovis-PxL [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2002 2:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] Switch vs Hubs and VLANS I have a pair of Nokia IP440 setup with VRRP running FW1 V4.1 I have been told that using a switch instead of a hub is more secure, can someone please confirm if this is so. Also If I use a switch, can I use VLANS, so I can setup half the switch for my DMz and half for the outside Interfaces.
