Hi,
We have SSG140 with the following setup:
ethernet0/7 192.168.20.251/24 Trust Layer3 Up
ethernet0/8 216.243.77.xxx/26 Untrust Layer3 Up
ethernet0/9 192.168.10.251/24 Trust Layer3 Up
[7] is only used for directly connecting the wan side/interface of a load balancer to it
[8] is the outside/real-ip/wan side
[9] is used to connect all the servers and the lan side/interface of the load balancer through a switch
Image Attached that explains our setup
What we need to do now isstart on making all our nodes redundant - so we need to add a 2nd load balancer and a 2nd firewall
Starting with the load balancer we are told that we need to connect the wan port of each unit to the same network with different Ip addresses
I know we can do that by introducing a switch between the load balancer and the firewall but I am interested in knowing if there is a way to make two ports/interfaces in the firewall act as if they are both in the same network [namely here interface 7]
Like can we have two ports of the firewall with the same setup so that we could connect each unit of the load balancer to one of them.
One last question - what should I study to get to know every thing about the firewall setup including the terminology and basic concepts? is there a course for that provided by juniper? - because I noticed that the help files assumes you already know all the concepts and terminology.
Thanks a lot for your help
