Windows 98

Windows Me

Go to the Start menu, select Run, type in

winipcfg

, and hit Enter. A

popup window will be displayed. Select the appropriate adapter from the

pull-down menu and you will see the Adapter Address. This is the MAC

address of the device.

Windows 2000

Windows XP

Go to your Start menu, select Programs, select Accessories, and select

Command Prompt. At the command prompt type

ipconfig /all

and hit

Enter. The physical address displayed for the adapter connecting to the

router is the MAC address.

Mac OS X

Go to the Apple Menu, select System Preferences, select Network, and

select the Ethernet Adapter connecting to the router. Select the Ethernet

button and the Ethernet ID will be listed. This is the same as the MAC

address.

DHCP Reservations List

This shows clients that you have specified to have reserved DHCP addresses. An entry can be

changed by clicking the Edit icon, or deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the

Edit icon, the item is highlighted, and the "Edit DHCP Reservation" section is activated for

editing.

Number of Dynamic DHCP Clients

In this section you can see what LAN devices are currently leasing IP addresses.

Revoke

The

Revoke

option is available for the situation in which the lease table becomes full or

nearly full, you need to recover space in the table for new entries, and you know that

some of the currently allocated leases are no longer needed. Clicking

Revoke

cancels the

lease for a specific LAN device and frees an entry in the lease table. Do this only if the

device no longer needs the leased IP address, because, for example, it has been

removed from the network.

Reserve

The

Reserve

option converts this dynamic IP allocation into a DHCP Reservation and

adds the corresponding entry to the DHCP Reservations List.

Advanced_Virtual Server

The Virtual Server option gives Internet users access to services on your LAN. This feature

is useful for hosting online services such as FTP, Web, or game servers. For each Virtual

Server, you define a public port on your router for redirection to an internal LAN IP Address

and LAN port.

Example:

You are hosting a Web Server on a PC that has LAN IP Address of 192.168.2.50 and

your ISP is blocking Port 80.

Name the Virtual Server (for example:

Web Server

)

2.

Enter the IP Address of the machine on your LAN (for example:

192.168.2.50

3.

Enter the Private Port as [80]

4.

Enter the Public Port as [8888]

8.

Repeat these steps for each Virtual Server Rule you wish to add. After the list

is complete, click

at the top of the page.

With this Virtual Server entry, all Internet traffic on Port 8888 will be redirected to your

internal web server on port 80 at IP Address 192.168.2.50.

Virtual Server Parameters

Name

Assign a meaningful name to the virtual server, for example

Web Server

.

Several well-known types of virtual server are available from the "Application

Name" drop-down list. Selecting one of these entries fills some of the remaining

parameters with standard values for that type of server.

IP Address

The IP address of the system on your internal network that will provide the

virtual service, for example

192.168.2.50

. You can select a computer from the

list of DHCP clients in the "Computer Name" drop-down menu, or you can

manually enter the IP address of the server computer.

Protocol

Select the protocol used by the service. The common choices -- UDP, TCP, and

both UDP and TCP -- can be selected from the drop-down menu. To specify any

other protocol, select "Other" from the list, then enter the corresponding protocol

number (

as assigned by the IANA

) in the

Protocol

box.

Private Port

The port that will be used on your internal network.

Public Port

The port that will be accessed from the Internet.

Select a filter that controls access as needed for this virtual server. If you do not

see the filter you need in the list of filters, go to the

Advanced

screen and create a new filter.
