Equipment
background
Flowpoint and Efficient Routers are setup with Network Address Translation.
NAT allows many computers to access the Internet by masking behind
one IP address while protecting the local area network from possible
hostile intrusions via external networks. This serves as a basic firewall
while still allowing general Internet use. With the default configuration,
up to 254 hosts can be connected to the router.
router default settings
- NAT enabled
- Router LAN IP address: 192.168.254.254
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
prerequisites
- A CAT 5 Ethernet cable or a Console Cable.
- A computer with a 10BaseT or 10/100BaseT Network Interface Card
that is properly installed.
- A terminal emulation program such as Microsoft Windows Telnet
or Hyperterminal
- A Web browser such as Internet Explorer or Navigator.
- The router must be physically connected to the DSL line.
setup
Open a telnet client (Hyperterminal, Secure CRT, etc.) and telnet to
192.168.254.254. This will display Login: with a cursor
next to it. The login is the password of the router. The default password
is admin. Type this in and hit Enter. If the correct password
was entered it will display Logged in successfully! with a pound (#)
sign underneath it. Enter in all commands, as displayed below, after the pound
sign. Remember to hit Enter after every line.
command line
These lines must typed in exactly as shown below, with an exception
for the information listed in RED. All
