PIX 515 / What kind of cable do I use? X-over or Straight thru???

[chipjumper]

Trying to hook up my companies mail server. Boss told me to plug it into the PIX 515 in the spot labled "DMZ"---I can't find that either...

Anyways, what kind of cable do I use to hook between the mail server and the PIX Firewall??? Crossover or straight-thru???


Thanks,


Ed

Hi,
If you are going from pix to server directly you should use Crossover.

If there is a Hub or Switch in between use Straight cable.
