A seemingly simple issue I just can't find the configs to do; Setup: - CPFW1-AI-r54 on W2003 - Dynamic DSL internet connection using RASPPPoE
Prior to installing FW1, the RASPPPoE connection works fine, but after installing, I try connecting to the internet and (obviously) it doesn't connect. My error is simply that it doesn't connect ("no answer"). I can't find the config options to ensure that the line out to the internet is a dynamically assigned IP address and let FW1 know about this so it can allow incoming TAPI (?) traffic to connect the DSL line.
My FW1 has 3 arms: internal lan, dmz, and internet connection. The RASPPPoE setup is such that it creates a separate dial-up connection to the internet NIC (which is eth-connected to the DSL modem). The dial-up connection connects to the DSL provider whilst the internet NIC only has PPPoE enabled (IP disabled). I have a feeling this is creating an issue in that FW1 may not be able to filter this protocol (and therefore just block it).
Any thoughts of assistance would be greatly appreciated!

A follow up; I have managed to get the DSL dialer working; I had to uncheck CPFW1 from the Internet connected NIC properties. Although this sounds counter intuitive, CPFW1 still blocks internet traffic (as long as you have the appropriate rules) though now I am working out the NAT/Routing side of things!
