Hello NANOG community. I was directed here by our network administrator since she is on vacation.
I am Old School, I guess. In my day Step One would be "Fire the administrator." The job is by nature a 24 X 7 X 52 job and "On Call" the rest of the time. "Vacation" is never a reason to leave your assignment insecure. "NAT-based firewall"? Really? How long has the consultant been out of business? Luckily, I minored in Computer Science so I have
some familiarity.
I have no idea how I fat-fingered a "send" at this point/ I started to write that you have an emergency on your hands and you need to focus your attention of finding a person or firm that can take charge and fix problems you don't even know about yet.
