Hello,

My name is Jean-Philippe, comming from Belgium.
Basically, i work with computers materials but network is not my job.

I try to understand how to get internet on 3 or 5 computers now with a dfl-800.
I real situation, it will be 150 to 200 computers but it's just to filter internet access.
My goal is not to become a guru of networks.

I think i followed the instructions for basic configuration with the gui interface of the dfl-800.

To make it more easy, i changed the ip adress of the dsl modem to 192.168.2.1 to evict conflicts between dsl modem and dfl-800.

Now there is only 1 computer connected on lan1 of dfl-800 and i do not have internet on this machine so i don't imagine with 4 machine...
dls modem is connected to port wan 1.


Can someone help me to configure and give some tips to help me ?

Thank you so by advance

Jean-philippe

Your situation seems the easiest - static IP on wan and can be configured by wizard. Also it will create DHCP server for your network.

By manually:

1) Interfaces > Ethernet > wan1
Disable DHCP client

2) Objects > Address book > IntrefaceAddresses
Set
wan1_ip = 192.168.2.2
wan1net = 192.168.2.0/24
wan1_gw = 192.168.2.1

By default, DFL cannot to do DNS relay, so you should specify on clients external servers or make DNS relay:

Rules > IP rules
Add rules
SAT lan/lannet core/lan_ip dns-all (SAT: new destination = wan1_dns1)
NAT lan/lannet core/lan_ip dns-all

It's most easy settings, all other should be done in according with your situation and requirements.

thank you very much.
I will check all settings and send a post again to tell you.

Thank's again

Hello,

I think i followed the intructions you gave me.
But internet in not available.

Perhaps can i give you all settings.

• dfl-800 is connected to my dsl modem with ip 192.168.2.13 (static)
• after restar the only connected computer, it appear i have an access to internet but i cannot get any page (perhaps due to the settings of my network card to access to the dfl-800)
• I tried to connect another computer with automatic configuration and i get unknown network with no internet access

This what i have now...

For the configuration of dfl-800, a reset has been done to get the wizard and use static configuration as you told me.
I used the good addresses :

wan1_ip = 192.168.2.13 (instead of 192.168.2.2 because i configured it as static in my dsl modem)
wan1net = 192.168.2.0/24
wan1_gw = 192.168.2.1

for the rules:
here is exactly what i done :

sat
name : sat
action : SAT
Service : dns-all
schedule : (none)
adress filter : interface -->source = lan  / destination = core
adress filter : network -->source = lannet / destination = lan_ip

in the SAT tab : translate the : destination IP to wan_dns1

nat
name : nat
action : NAT
Service : dns-all
schedule : (none)
adress filter : interface -->source = lan  / destination = core
adress filter : network -->source = lannet / destination = lan_ip

Here are the instructions tou gave me.

The only thing that changed is now in the network center, it seems i have an internet connection but i cannot get any page (bizzare).
For the other computer connected to port 2 of the dfl, the network is unknown.

Do not forget that on the computer where i configure the dfl-800 (with internet acces but no pages availables), the ip configuration is :
ip : 192.168.1.2
mask : 255.255.255.0
default gateway : 192.168.1.1

the second computer connected to the dfl-800 has an automatic ip configuration and ell me the network is unknown.

would you accept to help me again, i really need this.

Thank you so much,

Jean-Philippe

Set DFL as DNS server for your PC.

[jplesire]

i done two differents things on the 2 pc.

Here are the results.

for the pc with ip configured to access to dfl-800 :
ip : 192.168.1.2
mask : 255.255.255.0
default gateway : 192.168.1.1
dns server : 192.168.1.1 the one you told me to do

Result in network connection details : local access, ipv4 ip adress is 192.168.1.2, default gateway : 192.168.1.1, ipv4 dns server : 192.168.1.1, netbios on tcp/ip : activated, no information on ipv6

For the other pc connected on port 2 of dfl-800 :
ip : get automatically
mask : get automatically
default gateway : get automatically
dns server : 192.168.1.1 the one you told me to do

result in network connection details : no access to internet and network, ipv4 adress : 196.254.221.106, no default gateway and dns server : 192.168.1.1, netbios on tcp/ip : activated, no information on ipv6

i tried to add a nat rule in my dsl modem :
for the firewall, access to http, 80 in,  80 ext but nothing change.

Do i have to configure a static route table in my dsl modem ?

Another question is important, because the final goal will be for users.
The machines of the users will not be administred by me.
Will they be in obligation to modify their ip configuration manually ?

Thank you so much again

Jean-Philippe

You haven't DHCP server configured on your DFL, so 2nd PC cannot to get internet. But, how about 1st? Have it internet access?

If you don't want ask your users to configure something by theirselves, configure DHCP server at System > DHCP servers
