QUESTION POSED ON: 20 May 2002
I have two Win2k Advanced Servers -- one is a Web server and one is the
database server. Each server has two NICs -- a 10/100 NIC and a gigibit NIC.
I will connect the Web server to the Internet using the 10/100 NIC (through
a firewall ports 80 and 441).
I was thinking of connecting the database server to the Web server using the
gigibit NIC in both servers. I need to secure the database server from the
Internet and allow the Web server to access the SQL database server through
the gigibit NIC.
Finally the question: How do I NOT allow communication directly from the
gigibit NIC to the 10/100 NIC thus securing the database server?
