what is best configuration for watchguard x15 router and small business server 2003.

Asked by kooleecoyote in Miscellaneous Networking, Cisco PIX Firewall, Watchguard Firewall

OK.
This weekend I am installing a SBS 2003 server at a company who now has a 2000 server and is not hosting their own email. It's only a 10 employee company so I am starting all over and installing the server from scratch. Right now they have a watchguard firewall. From my experience so far to make exchange server to work properly you have to have a public nic on the server.....So from a security stand point I suppose I want the router between the External (public nic) and the Internet right? If I had it in between the internal nic that would not make much sense to me as far as security.. I guess anyone that is going to hack the computer would have to come through the external nic and the firewall right?

I guess my question is this.. What would be the best way to secure this thing? I am planning on using exchange server, OWA, and the terminal services that SBS 2003 offers. But like I said, it has been my experience if you have internal nic addresses trying to use exchange a dnsreport.com return the desired results.. I read on one site that I should use router in Bridge mode? Would that be any better than just using the external nic as the router with Routing and Remote Access? If anyone has used this same scenario please give me some detailed info.. I am instlling this thing this weekend... Was going to do it a week from now, but time constraints are pushing me..

Thanks
