could i use the soho91 as a firewall for my webserver? It does not have to be super secure... I cant spend a ton on another firewall

Hello Chris,

provided that your SOHO91 router has the firewall feature set loaded (do a 'show version' and check for a line similar to 'soho91-k9oy6-mz', which would indicate that you have the firewall feature set installed), the router should support the 'ip inspect' command, which basically is a firewall that would block all traffic defined with 'ip inspect' statements coming from the outside, but would allow it from the inside. Of course there are also access lists available, so if you need basic security on your router, that is certainly configurable.

Can you post the configuration of your router as it is configured now ?

Regards,

GNT

==============

The SOHO 91 IOS version you have does contain firewall commands. If you login to the CRWS under advanced configuration, this gives you the option to enable or disable the firewall. Nothing too big or difficult to accomplish.

Hii.. i would suggest that if u r lookin from a security viewpoint then pls

use the ip inspect option with soho

this will help to validate and pass only traffic that is gettin initiated from int n/w and wanting to come back in with some return data.

Pls rate if this helps.
