OKay, my situation is like this:
I have 2 static IPs: 67.xx.xxx.44 and 67.xx.xxx.41

As of now my system setup like this:

IP 67.xx.xxx.44 is running directly from the router to Exchange Server Box. This server is live right now without any firewall at all. (Very risky isn't it?)

IP 67.xx.xxx.41 is running into a Pix506 firewall then goes into another windows 2000 server.

Now I want to put my Exchange server to behind the Pix506. My question is how to di tackle this issue? I still want to keep every IP above go to each of its server.

Could someone gives me some hints?
 
put a hub/switch on the private interface of your pix. connect your existing server and then also your exchange server to the hub. give your exchange server a private ip address. configure your pix with 'static' command to allow traffic from the public ip address of your exchange box, to the private ip address. dont forget to include an access-list to allow the correct ports as well as the access group.

hope this helps.
 
One thing to keep in mind though is that you cannot do a static nat for both external IP's to a single internal. so you need to assign a 2nd'ary internal IP to the exchange box..
 
OKay, am I right on this:
I have assigned a static Private IP to my Exchange Box. and running the cable from the switch to my server boxes. Now I am using PDM interface to configure this. How do I configure and do port forward for my exchange box?
