GNS3 Notes - The APAC HUB

I will be re-creating actual live production environment on GNS3. 

Fig 1. The APAC HUB






















A two-tier firewall setup built with 2x Cisco ASA and 2x Fortinet FortiGates.
ASAs primary function is the edge firewall for MPLS, DMZ and VPN services.
FortiGates on the other hand is the firewall for INTERNET services.
