Behind a firewall do I need to change the address space?

yzT! · 04-01-2014, 08:39 AM

If I have a network, lets say 10.0.0.0/24 and I put a firewall, do I need to change all the ip addresses of the machines behind the firewall?

For example,

Internet - 10.0.0.0 - Firewall - 192.168.1.0

Or can I do something like:

Internet - 10.0.0.0 - Firewall - 10.0.0.0

You can't have the same IP network in two different places, so your second example will not work.

What exactly is the firewall?
