The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Juniper Netscreen SSG-140: Inbound/Outgoing SMTP traffic on specific Untrust IP

Tags: juniper, netscreen
SSG-140, 5.4.0r5.0

Relatively new to routing and firewalls so apologies in advance for my ignorance.

We have an e-mail server with 5 IP addresses in the DMZ: 10.0.0.71, 10.0.0.72, 10.0.0.73, 10.0.0.74, 10.0.0.75.

The e-mail server hosts 4 domains, each of which binds to its own dedicated IP address:

DomainA   10.0.0.72
DomainB   10.0.0.73
DomainC   10.0.0.74
DomainD   10.0.0.75

Using MIP on the Untrust interface and the appropriate policies we are able to get inbound traffic from a public IP address to the corresponding DMZ address with no problem.

Public        Private
1.0.0.72 = 10.0.0.72
1.0.0.73 = 10.0.0.73
1.0.0.74 = 10.0.0.74
1.0.0.75 = 10.0.0.75

Currently our very basic DMZ to Untrust routing configuration sends all outbound traffic with the SSG-140s Untrust address (1.0.0.120). The challenge now is to get the outgoing SMTP traffic from each e-mail server DMZ IP to go out with the IP address of the corresponding public incoming IP address.

From what Ive read, PBR seems to offer what we need (??), but how would I configure my interfaces?  If I try to create a sub-IF on ethernet0/0 (Untrust) with an IP address of 1.0.0.100 /26 (NOT currently named specifically elsewhere in the SSG-140) I get an overlapping IP error message.

Our interface configuration:

Untrust   ethernet0/0
Trust   ethernet0/8
DMZ   ethernet0/9

The Untrust interface is assigned an IP of 1.0.0.120 /26.

I have plenty of physical ports available on both the SSG-140 and my public switch.  That said, I dont want to use physical ports unnecessarily.

What is the best way to proceed so that I can direct incoming SMTP to the DMZ NIC and outgoing SMTP traffic from the DMZ in a way that it appears to be originating from a specific public IP?


TIA,
Rob
