6.3 Placing Your Device on the Network
In many corporate settings, users are isolated from the Internet by a firewall and/or a
proxy server. These devices attempt to secure the company from unauthorized network
traffic, and usually work by disallowing traffic that did not originate from inside the net-
work. If you want users on the Internet to communicate with your RCM3305/RCM3315,
you have several options. You can either place the RCM3305/RCM3315 directly on the
Internet with a real Internet address or place it behind the firewall. If you place the
RCM3305/RCM3315 behind the firewall, you need to configure the firewall to translate
and forward packets from the Internet to the RCM3305/RCM3315.
