Sophos XG behind a modem

Inspace IT over 6 years ago

I am setting up the XG firewall in my new office.

I have a coaxial modem. How can I have a firewall behind a modem?

I heard SSL VPN won't work in bridge mode. If thats true then this won't work for us. We need VPN SSL for our daily work.

Modem LAN - 192.168.150.1

XG WAN - 192.168.150.2

XG LAN - 192.168.1.1 with DHCP

Create an FW rule from LAN to WAN & VPN to LAN

Will Double NAT works? and I will forward 8443 port to FW for VPN? so will this works?

Double nat is not a problem.

Take note that SSL VPN in bridge mode works:

Great then I will bridge the WAN and LAN interface.

Enable DHCP in FW and disable it in the modem.

Create an FW rule for LAN to WAN and LAN to LAN.

Let you know once it is done. Thanks
