Hello,
Right - need a little help please! My networking is a bit poor. I know the basics IP, DHCP, DNS and all that.
My scenario is:
Current:
Linksys Router connecting to a 1Gb switch which provides connectivity to the wired LAN. Linksys is acting as the DHCP server on 192.168.1.x.
I now want to put in a hardware firewall (Watchguard).
It has a WAN (external) interface and Trusted (LAN) interface.
In the config of the external interface I've set to DHCP because my router is the DHCP server.
I tried setting up the trusted also as a 192.168.1.x but it complained because they were the same - obviously you can't have two of the same network ranges.
So I could setup the trusted as 192.168.10.x but the router is acting as the DHCP so do client PC's get their IP address as I've just said the trusted is 192.168.10.x?
