is used for that purpose.
It must be set to

BETWEEN THE ROUTER AND A FIREWALL
A SG can be transparently inserted
between the router and a firewall

Figure 12 - SG between a router and a firewall
If there is a switch between the StreamGroomer and the router accessing the WAN, the crossover cable should be replaced
with a straight-through cable. If the StreamGroomer is connected between two routers, or between a router and a firewall, 2
crossover cables should be used.
