CHAPTER 4 STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMMON APPLICATIONS
This chapter provides detailed examples that can be used as models for similar applications. Turn to the example
that is closest to your application, read the explanations, and fill in the blank spaces with parameters appropriate
to your system. At the end of the section, you should have listed all the parameters needed to configure the
router. At that point, read chapter 3 if you have not already, and configure your router with help from later chapters
of the Installation Manual, when needed.
Example 1 Connection to an Internet Access Provider via Modem
This section will guide you through a complete router installation for the connection of a LAN to an Internet access
provider via PPP. The configuration of NAT (Network Address Translation) will also be shown. Figure 4.1 shows
the example system used in this section. Note that this example assumes that the IP address to which the
network IP addresses will be translated is assigned dynamically by the Internet Service Provider. For configuration
of a known IP address, see the chapter on NAT configuration in the complete Installation Manual. Spaces have
been provided next to the parameters needed for the configuration where you can fill in the parameters for your
system. Do this now before continuing.
