[cobalt-users] CacheRAQ2 (Newbie Question Please Be Patient)



Hi Listers
 
We have a Raq2 we have connected to our 2MB fibre link on the network 1 interface and network 2 is used for our dialups and other live IP based servers.  We also have inplace a firewall machine and on the other side of the firewall is a private network with about 15 machines on it.  My problem is the that the daily statistics are not showing any connections by the firewall machine as a client (nor as a server for that matter).
 
We dont have a router in place as we dont seem to need one.  Our fibre link is terminated with an ethernet port and I set our gateway IP as the router on the other end of our fibre (ie our upstream provider's router).  Another "quirk" is that when someone access's our other Cobalt product (Cache RAQ3) from outsode our network (ie from the internet proper) they show up as a client accessing the cache in the log?  The gateway router at our upstream provider is also showing up as a client!
 
What gives?  I know I am missing something obvious and I am sure someone is going to tell me I need a router :-) But not having used any major piece of routing equipment before I am not sure what I need...
 
Regards
 
Peter
 
 
Ps: What I think I need to do is setup Network 2 as the gateway subnet for our link and put all our equipment on Network 1 but I tried this and it all seemed to fall over :-)
