Our current network has a partial T1 connected to a Cisco Router to a
firewall (SunScreen on a Sun box). This firewall handles two subnets
(192.168.1.x and 2.x). There are 4 NICs on the firewall. The Internet
connection, the 1.x network , the 2.x network, and the 4th NIC is
connected to another Cisco Router with is a frame-relay connection
that the 2.x network uses. The two subnets could also talk to one
another.

We want to replace the firewall with a Cisco Pix box. The frame-relay
connection and associated router are going away. This leaves 2 subnets
(1.x and 2.x) that will go in and out through the firewall and router
to the Internet.

Can I, and how do I, handle both subnets on the Cisco Pix box? These
two subnets will need to talk to one another (telnet back and forth).
Thank you.

Charles
