ISA Installation behind a SCM McAfee - 7.Oct.2007 12:10:50 PM

Hello, i've installed several times ISA server 2004, but this time i have problems with an specific topology.

I'm trying to this:
INTERNET --> ASA (firewall cisco) --> SCM McAfee --> ISA

This is the physical topology:
http://www.gigasize.com/get.php?d=w6lt2dzt93b
1 ethernet card for the ISA server, and 1 ethernet card for the SCM McAfee

The SCM McAfee works with the mails and HTTP protocol.  If i configure in any client the SCM IP Address in
Tools --> Internet options --> connection --> lan settings
the client can use internet.
If i apply this configuration in the server, the iexplorer works ok, reaching the internet throught the SCM --> ASA.

In the server, in the ethernet card, the firewall is the default Gateway (right now), and the DNS are the external DNS. It works OK and the clients reach internet, but throught this way    ISA --> ASA.
i mean the primary connection to internet is through the firewall.

If i change the default gateway (for the SCM IP Address) it just  don't work.

is there any way to configure the ISA for using another configuration to reach the internet? i.e. using the Iexplorer configuration?
I've been looking for information in technet and other stuff but i couldn't make it work.

Should i change the topology? using 2 ethernet cards for the ISA Server and the SCM Appliance? something like this:
Internet --> ASA --> SCM (Transparent Bridge) --> ISA (back to back or edge) --> clients?

Regards

Get another NIC in that ISA Firewall ASAP! That ASA isn't going to protect you like the ISA Firewall will.

HTH,

That's only a test server.
That ISA will be behind and IDS, the Firewall Cisco (ASA), and a McAfee SCM Appliance .
Almost that you think i should use 2 NIC? Why?

Any help about the internet connection?

Thanks!

Maybe if you put the ASA on Ebay and get the ISA Firewall fully configured things would be more secure and work better?

2 things
1- Isa server configured with one interface doesn't work as a firewall, just like a proxy server?
2- The ASA isn't connected direct to the internet, the full topology is something like this:
INTERNET -- IPS&IDS -- ASA --SCM WEBSHIELD -- ISA -- CLIENT

even that it's more expensive, it's more secure

 Don't forget to turn on Windows Firewall on your clients!!!
Maybe return the SCM and buy some good Add In software for ISA.

GFI, McAfee SSH.....

The SCM is a McAfee SCM, so why are you use more processor % in one server if you can do some work in another one?
