Our company is annexing an external warehouse, and is planning to install a basic network there to support LAN-connected inventory control systems. The equipment we have available at this time is a pair of PIX 501 firewalls (one for each location). The plan is to use a VLAN tunnel between the PIXes so the locations can be securely connected across the Internet (the warehouse has its own DSL Internet connection).
Management wants the topology between the two sites to be flat; in other words, they want to use the same IP subnet at both locations, and have the computers at one location be able to talk to servers on the other without having to configure a new subnet and new routing rules.
Is this possible to do with the existing PIXes? If so (or if not), how would you recommend we set it up?
