A Sample Network Setup

9

Installation Requirements

1.

Standard 10/100Base-T, including four network cables with RJ-45

connectors.

2.

All PCs need to install the TCP/IP network protocol.

1.

Make sure the power of the DSA-5100 is turned off.

2.

Connecting the WAN1 and WAN2 ports.

Use one of the supplied straight-through cables to connect the DSA-5100 to the network

not managed by the DSA-5100 system (such as and ATU

router for ADSL, the Ethernet

port of a cable modem, or a switch or hub on a LAN).

3.

Connecting the Public LAN port.

The Public LAN port is used to provide authentication based Internet access for Ethernet

(with switch) or WLAN (with AP) clients. Use one of the supplied straight-through

Ethernet cables if connecting to a hub or switch. Use the supplied crossover cable if

connecting directly to an AP or PC.

Warning:

The Public LAN port cannot connect to a Layer 3 device.

4.

Connecting the Private LAN port.

The Private LAN port is used to provide Internet access without authentication for

your existing Private Network. Use one of the supplied straight-through Ethernet cables

if connecting to a hub or switch. Use the supplied crossover cable if connecting directly

to an AP or PC.

Setting Up the DSA-5100

5.

Turn on the power.

Plug the bundled power cord connector into the socket and then turn on the power.

6.

Check the LED indicating light.

After the power is ON, the power LED should be lit. The WAN1, WAN2, Public LAN,

and Private LAN LEDs will light up with a valid Ethernet connection.

Setting Up the DSA-5100 (continued)

TCP/IP Network Setup

±

For Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP, you need to keep the default TCP/IP settings

(“obtain IP and DNS address automatically”) to communicate with the DSA-5100.

±

The DSA-5100 leases DHCP addresses from the Public and Private LAN ports

for ease of configuration.

±

For Non-Server Windows operating systems, the default setting for TCP/IP is

“DHCP client,” which will obtain an IP address automatically.

±

If you wish to use a static IP on the public or private LAN section, or you wish to

check the TCP/IP setup, please refer to the Appendix – Windows TCP / IP Setup.
