OK. It gets very complex after this... But you have two options...
One is IPsec tunneling over the internet. Slow, but secure. The other
is to create a link on the INTERNAL side of the firewall. This is
adding a nic to firewall A with an IP in the subnet of firewall B and
adding static routes to both firewalls. The method used to do this can
be a long cable, a leased line, or wireless. This will be much faster,
and also secure.
