17.1 Legacy Series / Topology
« on: May 16, 2017, 01:35:37 pm »
Hi opnsensative types. I’d like to ask a question about the choices of topology available to me under Opnsense. I’m not new to networking but see myself as more a victim than practician. I want to host a couple of very low volume web sites and some remote access software, VPN etc.
Should I go for the usual double NAT behind the ISPs router, I could use IPv6 which is more static than the IPv4 address provided but as I can barely cope with v4 two more vs might be too many!
Or
Should I drop in a transparent Bridge to the existing LAN and let the ISP router do DHCP etc?
Do I put the internet facing servers in a DMZ from the ISP router or create a DMZ off the Opnsense host.
Answers on a postcard, thanks in anticipation Strebor
