Re: [FW-1] How to connecto to 2 ISP's? - using one Checkpoint VPN/Firewall
Hi folks,
I have been reading with quite an interest with the ongoing thread.
I am new to all this and had joined this list for understanding a
(im)pending installation for this location to connect with an international
network which also is being installed. All sites are with the Checkpoint
VPN/firewall.
I have been told to prepare the CPU with 3 network cards, one for our LAN
and two for the ISP's and to obtain the ISP's. Later someone will be
coming to finish the installation of Checkpoint and all. For your
information, the CPU will have Windows 4.0SP6 and will be connected to a
Windows 2000 LAN in mixed mode.
Is this feasible/doable? Any precautions I should consider before getting
the two providers?
Thanks,
Raymond

Howdy,
for a moment we taught our ISP went bankrupt last week. Fortunately this
turned out not to be the case, however this kind of woke up upper
management :-).
So I'm now investigating how to use 2 ISP's for our Internet connection.
Anybody any experience with this? Any links to usefull info?
Is this something that should be solved on the firewall level or will some
router magic do the trick?
Thanks in advance,
Nico
