Hi,

I am planning to implement the following setup as below: -

                                                     ------- Bridging 
FW-1 -------
Internet ---- Router ---- Hub ---- 
|                                              | ---- Switch ---- 
Servers (VoIP)
                                                     ------- Bridging 
FW-2 -------

I would like to understand how does the Servers (VoIP) behind the two 
Bridging Firewalls will know which path will it choose to route the 
traffic out and which path will it use often.

Hope my question is not off topic.

Thank you,
ro0ot

spanning tree.  and it will always go through one firewall until the
path dies.
