Hello all,

What are your thoughts on this scenario? I have a client with a
Netgear 8 port firewall/swith. I'm going to install a Fortigate 50A
managed firewall with AV screening. Can I use the 8 port DLINK
firewall switch as a switch only?

One cable between the modem and the fortigate, another between the
fortigate and the 8 port bank on the DLINK router/firewall and clients
plugged into the same bank. The Wan port on the Dlink will be empty.

Has anyone ever done this before?

Thanks!

Steve
