| reply to operad Re: T1 card for Linux-based routers?
Howdy, operad. Thx for replying. I greatly appreciate it.
That might do the job.
Long story, actually. I "inherited" the school network which I'm slowly upgrading. The original Linux box served as a proxy server that ran various apps including Dans Guardian as well as serving as a DHCP server. In addition, there are two 3COM routers; one serving as the router for the T1 and the other serving as an internal router for a different subnet (I don't know why they did this).
Basically, I'd like to turn the Linux box into a router that connects to the T1 Ethernet line that comes from the CSU/DSU. This is to replace the 3COM router that has the T1 card.
Then, I'd like to connect the router to the Sonicwall unit which will take care of A/V control, content filtering as well as serving as the local DHCP server.
Hope that helps.
Thx again!
