I've got a question concerning DSL service via PPPoA, yes oA for PPP over ATM, which is what is what my ISP uses. Ok, the way it was explained to me is that my DSL modem, Zyxel Prestige 642MA will have an ethernet port for my connection, it will have a set IP of 192.168.1.1 on that ethernet port, it hen expects you in house machine to have an address of 192.168.1.2. Ok, that means in order to "talk" out to the internet, my router, or any machine has uses 192.168.1.1 as the gateway machine with the routing table defaulting to it. Now, about ipmasq and firewalling. Since the DSL modem expects the connected machine to be 192.168.1.1, then the DSL modem would have to do NAT/ipmasq for it. So how would the LRP machine be set up for firewall and ipmasqurading for the second nic local network of say 192.168.2.xxx? Since it's internet connection is also a private network number, not a dynamically allocated global number like a normal ppp connection would get. The settings for the local networked machines would be ip 192.168.2.xxx, gateway 192.168.2.1, ip of the LRP's nic on that network, and DNS being the same as before. Anybody set up a router like this before?? I am not new to LRP, I have been running one for many months, switching over to eiger2beta a month or so ago to fix an AOL Instant Messenger problem. I have about ten days to two weeks to get ready for this. -- Jeff Pierce [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pages.preferred.com/~piercej _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
