Subject: [c-nsp] External Firewall


I'm interested in adding a firewall to a network I admin at work.  The 
gateway router on the network is a 7200 NPE-G1.

What I want to know is whether I have to route all of my packets through 
my external firewall, or is there a way to have the firewall set state 
in the router to enable it to route packets in a session without the 
further involvement of the firewall?

Peace...  Sridhar
