Re: [FW-1] License schema question

["Reed Mohn, Anders" <Anders.Reed.Mohn@FW1-NOSPAMITCOMPAGNIET.NO>]

Hmm.. don't know how they interpret that,
I mean, indirectly, the outer firewall is also protecting your internal
network, no matter how you look at it,
though it's far from obivous whether you fall in under this:

"It is a violation of this End User License Agreement to create,
set up, or design any hardware, software or system which alters
the number of readable IP-addresses presented to the Product with the
intent, or resulting effect, of circumventing the Licensed Configuration."

The words "or resulting effect" seems to bind you, even if your intention
in the design is not to circumvent the number of licensed IP's.

My guess:
If there is never any traffic from the internal network through the bastion,
then you wouldn't need the licenses.
If your internal hosts communicate through the outer firewall, though,
I would guess you need an according number of licenses.

What do you experts out there say?

Cheers,
Anders :)
