How is the SSN configured?
The SSN is configured through the SSN menu accessed from the main configuration screen of the firewall. What servers should (or should not) be placed on the SSN? The only server that cannot be placed on the SSN is the DNS server. However, the SSN is the best place to store all of your other servers. For example, NNTP news does not coexist well with other servers due to its immense resource requirements. It takes up a tremendous amount of disk space, CPU time and disk I/O to perform its daily tasks. Placing your NNTP server on the SSN frees up the firewall for other tasks, and gives your internal network full access to the news server.
