UTM interface to connect to on-the-premises router (behind the firewall) with a WAN IP

On this diagram we have several objects to look at

WAN IP = 12.12.12.35

LAN IP of UTM = 8.8.8.8

WAN IP of Router behind firewall = 12.12.12.36

LAN IP of Router behind firewall 8.8.8.4

 

 

How would you configure Port 4 to plug a cable from the UTM to the WAN Port of the Router? 

 

I plan to configure interface X4 = 12.12.12.36/32 proxy-arp enabled

 

now granted if the firewall rules are correct to allow full ip from 12.12.12.36 to get out through the internet to connect to defined router (10.10.10.10)

I think the Utm will see traffic from defined router (10.10.10.10) from any source (port 2 wan 12.12.12.35), permit it to pass to port 4 12.12.12.36.  Transparent traffic ???

In theory this should work right?  

If the router because of vpn tunnel policies didn't need the wan ip configured a nat rule would be sufficient.  

Other alternative create dmz ip for the interface and have the router's wan ip changed to avoid messing up the routing table.

  • Hello,

     

         What are the goals?

     

    BTW. Is the Router also the FW? 

     

    I ask because our environment is:  ISP WAN Router--> Our WAN Router-->ASA FW -bridged->UTM-->Switch 

    Our previous goal (currently used) was to use the UTM as a more refined FW, as compared to the basic ASA.

    We are now planning on replacing the ASA's instructions with the UTM (FW,ACLs,Objects,NAT)
