6.3 Placing Your Device on the Network

In many corporate settings, users are isolated from the Internet by a firewall and/or a proxy server. These devices attempt to secure the company from unauthorized network traffic, and usually work by disallowing traffic that did not originate from inside the net- work. If you want users on the Internet to communicate with your RCM4000, you have several options. You can either place the RCM4000 directly on the Internet with a real Internet address or place it behind the firewall. If you place the RCM4000 behind the fire- wall, you need to configure the firewall to translate and forward packets from the Internet to the RCM4000.
