The fortinet is a better pending on what options you have.can have antivirus and spam scanning. Also, I'm unsure what to do, because if I set the SMC to a specific IP address, I know it will work, but we will lose our capability of using the other different IP addresses. How can I setup the network to simply plug in a new router/firewall without touching the current settings of the SBS server, which is set to internal IP address schemes? Since it's a mail server, I already know that I'll have to be changing MX records and the likes, but that all still has to do with me configuring the proper IP address within the firewall/router. I have to get rid of the Fortigate firewall, because the previous admin forgot the username/password for it, and Fortigate wants us to "renew" their support contract with them in order to clear it, which my boss refuses to do. The problem is that I don't know how to simply configure the SMC modem to act as both the router and firewall, and leave the configuration for the server untouched. Verizon DSL modem > Fortigate firewall > SBS Server rig > switch > entire network Currently, the network is set up like this: We just got Comcast, with a block of 5 static IP addresses.

The server rig hosts our e-mail, and I'm sure acts as an internal router.
