Firewall + NAT
I'm planning to place some firewalls in my network, but I'm afraid of something.
I have never used cisco pix, checkpoints and others.. We currently use custom made linux solutions for that
When we use these ready-to-go boxes, do we need to NAT the internal server IPs?
Is it possible to use these ready-to-go solutions with REAL IPs in the servers?
Does cPanel work well with NATed internal IPs? Or shall I have some trouble?
Do you think it's safer to with NATed, or it will be better to use real ips instead?
thanks

cPanel requires a static public IP address in the server which hosts the control panel cPanel/WHM.
If you're going to expose the server on the internet then for cPanel you will require a public IP address. This is primarily because of the way cPanel works w.r.t licensing etc.Twitter : http://twitter.com/eth1networks
