I was hoping to get some insight from this group on a recurring challenge I have with all my customers that are currently on SBS 2003 Premium with ISA installed.  Whenever I try to follow the ‘reconfiguring steps’ for network settings, it seems there is always connectivity issues once the Gateway is moved off of SBS 2003 (there always seems to be an ISA rule or policy that won’t migrate to the new gateway router).

 

I was hoping to get some guidance on best practices for moving off of ISA 2004 (either to ISA 2006 standalone server or a UPNP router).  Also, I cannot find any guidance on what SMB routers will work best in an SBS 2008 infrastructure.

 

Any advice or suggestions on the above would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Stephen

I have to admit I don't migrate the rules as SBS 2003 and SBS 2008 require different firewall ports open.  I simply re-configure the new firewall  / router with the SBS 2008 rules.

 

thanks

David
