Cisco Pix Setup with Router

[mteoli]

Hi Everybody, I have setup a soho network. I have a Pix 501 Firewall and a linksys wireless g Router. My question is , which would be my first line of defence, Router-->PIx-->Lan or Pix-->Router-->lan

[s.vyas]

WHAT is your WAN?

Does PIX has WAN interface?

I dont think so...u have to use router outside the firewall.....

[mteoli]

Yes pix has wan interface.

[s.vyas]

u still need router ?

just fire up the pix and lan to the switch.....

[mteoli]

I need router for wireless clients

[s.vyas]

can u explain what connectivities are expected on lan and wan sides?

I personally work on a PIX-515E. 2 save on 1 rtr I have taken an Ethernet link from my ISP. I'm not quite sure abt 501 model...but with my model basic routing (static, rip, ospf) support is provided.
