Hi all,

A little teaser for you.....

I've got an installation that currently gets it's internet access through a modem dial up link to an ISP, modem attached to the ISA server box.

I'm implementing a DSL connection today, and wondered whether I need to alter any of the protocol or packet filters once I set up the new link. SBS gives me the choice of adding a new internet connection and retaining the current ISA/Security settings.

On the basis that I didn't configure the original connection, can I set up DSL and leave in good conscience that the security level is safe for the client ??

Or is there anything I need to watch out for because it's an always on connection ?

any advice appreciated as always !!

cheers
Roddy
