BorderNet™ 500 Gateway?
Page 11
An issue with the DMZ configuration is that the SIP traffic between Internet and LAN will pass the firewall twice,
which can decrease performance.
DMZ/LAN Configuration
Using this configuration, the BorderNet 500 Gateway is located on the DMZ of your firewall, and connected to
it with one of the network interfaces. The other network interfaces are connected to your internal networks. The
BorderNet 500 Gateway can handle several networks on the internal network interface, even if they are hidden
behind routers.
This configuration is used to enhance the data throughput, since the traffic only needs to pass your firewall once.
