OBII, DLT Library & Multi LAN's

[Chris Martyn]

I have a DLT library sitting in the server LAN that is used to back up all my servers. I would like to backup the servers sitting in the DMZ as well.

What secure options are available to me?

1. Could I add a second LAN card to the DLT library and patch it to the DMZ LAN? Would that be a security hole?

2. Get a fibre channel card for the DLT library and attach the DMZ servers directly?

3. Get a second LAN card for all my servers, plug them into a seperate switch (or VLAN) and create a backup LAN?

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your help.

Secure??

We produce the same configuration by using port filtering on the firewall. Omniback will work only on port 5555 (after installation)
We consider it a minor risk to enable this port only to the device server.

It may also be possible to tunnel using ssh, but haven't actually tried this one.
