Hi all,
I'm doing a demo test for a new set-up, the above set-up works fine, however there is slight network jitter and at moment it goes absolutely crazy, pings will be normal 40-50ms for hours then bang straight up to 600-700ms and we have pinpointed one or two culprit's on the network and asked to scan but problems seem to be re-appearing, quite a few sporadic spikes also
The single port Zyxel modem is sat on a BT line with NAT on providing the connection, this passes traffic to a Billion sat on EWAN which is doing the main routing and 3G failover and fall-back, on the Billion NAT is on and the firewall is disabled.
I want to enable the firewall to see if this stops the issue however when I do I lose remote access to this billion, even though remote management is enabled.
I have two questions really, is the firewall a serious security threat even though NAT is turned on? problem is there is a VPN set-up on here to a centrally hosted firewall, unfortunately they are not on a private connection just yet but planning to, at the moment they are on a public connection.
Could it just be someone's machine infected internally or the this firewall issue on the Billion.
