Planning to setup a new FTP server, I plan to put the FTP server on a different subnet on a different port (maybe optional?) than the trusted one. What's the best practice in setting up on the firebox? Also, I would like to have an option to access the FTP server from the trusted subnet. If anyone can chime in on what would be the best practice on setting a new FTP server and be secured on the firebox. Thank you and I appreciate your advise.

    Best practice for devices in a DMZ is that devices on trusted interface can access them, but devices in the DMZ shouldn't be able to access devices on trusted interfaces.
