What is DMZ Hosting?
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) allows one IP address (computer) to be exposed to the Internet.
Some applications
require multiple TCP/IP ports to be open.
It is recommended that you set your computer with a static IP if you
want to use DMZ Hosting. To get the LAN IP address, see “Appendix B: Finding the MAC Address and IP Address
for Your Ethernet Adapter.”
If DMZ Hosting is used, does the exposed user share the public IP with the Voice Gateway?
No.
Is the Voice Gateway cross-platform compatible?
Any platform that supports Ethernet and TCP/IP is compatible with the Voice Gateway.
Does the Voice Gateway replace a modem? Is there a cable or DSL modem in the Voice Gateway?
No, this version of the Voice Gateway must work in conjunction with a cable or DSL modem.
Which modems are compatible with the Voice Gateway?
The Voice Gateway is compatible with virtually any cable or DSL modem that supports Ethernet.
How do I get mIRC to work with the Voice Gateway?
Use the
Router - Application

Appendix B: Finding the MAC Address and IP Address for Your
Ethernet Adapter
This section describes how to find the MAC address for your computer’s Ethernet adapter so you can use the
MAC address cloning feature of the Voice Gateway. You can also find the IP address of your computer’s Ethernet
adapter. This IP address is used for the Voice Gateway’s forwarding and/or DMZ features. Follow the steps in this
appendix to find the adapter’s MAC or IP address in Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP.

Gateway via a CAT 5 Ethernet network cable.
3.
Write down the Adapter Address as shown on your computer screen. This is the MAC address for your
Ethernet adapter and is shown as a series of numbers and letters.
The MAC address/Adapter Address is what you will use for MAC address cloning.
The example shows the Ethernet adapter’s IP address as 192.168.1.100. Your computer may show
something different.

Appendix C: Windows Help
Appendix C: Windows Help
Almost all Linksys products require Microsoft Windows. Windows is the most used operating system in the world
and comes with many features that help make networking easier. These features can be accessed through
Windows Help and are described in this appendix.
TCP/IP
Before a computer can communicate with a network router, TCP/IP must be enabled. TCP/IP is a set of
instructions, or protocol, all PCs follow to communicate over a network. This is true for wireless networks as
well. Your PCs will not be able to utilize wireless networking without having TCP/IP enabled. Windows Help
provides complete instructions on enabling TCP/IP.
Shared Resources
If you wish to share printers, folder, or files over your network, Windows Help provides complete instructions on
utilizing shared resources.
Network Neighborhood/My Network Places
Other PCs on your network will appear under Network Neighborhood or My Network Places (depending upon the
version of Windows you're running). Windows Help provides complete instructions on adding PCs to your
network.
