<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I wondering if anyone has run into a situation such as this.<br />
<br />
I have two WAN connections one is a Comcast Cable modem connection (currently being used with the PIX without issue) and a T1 that I have just had installed. Currently my email is routed over the comcast connection works great. What I would like to do is this. I have a failover PIX and would like to use both Pixs with both WAN connections. Both Pix's already have a second network card.<br />
<br />
I would like my client traffic to over the Comcast circuit and the server based traffic over the T1. But I'd like to Pix to accept inbound SMTP from a secondary MX record on the comcast if the T1 is down. Also would like to failover to the circuit that is up if one is down. I don't believe I can do this with the PIX but I do have access to multiple Cisco routers.<br />
<br />
Anyone have any ideas?

Pix multiple WAN Connections

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.

Software Firewalls

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).
