I have a business network that only uses a linux firewall like this:

ISP -> firewall1 -> two switches & wifi router -> all workstations.

The firewall isn't providing adequate protection from all types of attacks so I'm thinking of installing a second firewall like this:

ISP -> firewall1 ->firewall2 -> switches and wifi -> all workstations

Should I just set the default gateway for firewall2 to the ip of firewall1, and then set the default gateway for the workstations to the ip of firewall1?
Thanks for your help guys, it's a newbie question and I appreciate your help.

That way will not declare ur firewall 2 security threat you have to go by the sequence otherwise it might get connection error in future due to nature
Of path recognition.
