Classical Routing - Simple Firewall

I have 12 public, static IP addresses from the ISP. I want to use these 12 addresses for 12 machines on my network, with the Firewall (Prosafe FVS336Gv3) acting as a basic firewall to control/cut off traffic.

 

I can't see how to configure the firewall to do that. What do I need to set up in the way of static routes and WAN facing IP addresses to get that to work?

    Hi lotanis,

     

    Welcome to the community! :smileyhappy:

     

    Although I have not yet set up Classical Routing, here is what I think the steps to set it up:

     

    1. Go to Network Configuration > WAN Settings > WAN Mode.  Then select Classical Routing under the NAT section.  Refer to the image below:

    2. Go to Network Configuration > WAN Settings > WAN Setup.  Click Edit on the IPv4 WAN interface you want to use.  Enter the static Public WAN IP Address on the Internet (IP) Address field.  Refer to the images below:

    Use Static IP.jpg

     

    3. On each PC, manually enter the other static Public WAN IP Address.  Then verify if you are able to go online.

     

    Hope it helps.  

     

     

    Regards,
