Should a network administrator put a firewall in front of a honeypot? Why or why not?

What will be an ideal response?

Perhaps. The firewall can direct certainkinds of traffic to the honeypot (and other traffic to regular users). But the purpose of the honeypot is to be exposed, to draw attention. The firewall can make it seem to most senders (ideally including attackers) as if the honeypot is the only resourceon the system.
