Cisco PIX 506e

[Diaonic]

I have this project at work i'm in the process of setting up.

We currently have two websites:

www.ourcompany.com website 1
www.ourcompanymanufacturing.com website 2

The names are irrelivant

Both of these websites are going to be hosted on one w2k3 machine running IIS. One with the port of 80 the other with the port of 81.

My question is, i want the internet world to use the above addresses over port 80 and resolve to each individual website.

I know the pix is capable of this but my lack of cisco experience really slows me down here.

So just to recap:

John Doe user goes to from his house:

www.ourcompany.com --> resolves to our public IP --> gets routed to website 1

John Doe user goes to from his house:

www.ourcompanymanufacturing.com --> resolves to our public IP --> gets routed to website 2

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Dia

Why not just run everything on port 80 and not have all that headache? You can host virtually an unlimited number of websites on a single host/ip address.

Basically you're making this a whole ton more complicated than it needs be.

Can I have all the traffic on port 80 resolve to the same machine and have IIS resolve the websites?

Would i just add a static inside, outside route for WWW and have IIS do the rest?

yes, IIS will use host headers to send the data to the right website. The only issue may come into play with https, as you can only have one certificate per IP.

Yeah, quite easy.

Route port 80 on the firewall/public IP address to your local server on port 80.

On IIS, configure each website to listen on the specific host header on port 80, make sure to include an entry for each www.domain.com and domain.com. You will need a seperate IP for each if you want to use SSL properly.
