nope, the router has got a lan entry and an ISDN one (to IPS)
on the same LAN branch, there is the firewall AND the station. then there are 
no reason at all for Lanalyser not to see the frames between the router and 
the firewall, knowing that I perfectly see the frames between the station and 
the router, or  the frames between the firewall and the station.
funny, ain"t it ?
