So yes, I think that I will try to use the ADSL-Router in Bridge mode. Or I could change ftp/ssh port numbers on the servers but this is not an ideal solution. ftp->port number 21) I could only use 1 server. I tried to port-forward ftp/ssh to the different servers, but since they use the same service ports number (e.g. We just want to connect via VPN to the servers via ssh/ftp. Without knowing your network topology it's impossible to tell from here whether that will work or not. (By the way, GRE protocol is used for PPTP VPN's. As a result of that, the GRE protocol (0) will "When putting the zyxel Prestige ADSL-Router 623 in Bridge mode, the router is transparent. Here's the answer of Zyxel's tech-support: If it's a router you configure an IP address based on the inside network of the router's interface.
If it's a bridge you give the Mac the IP address assigned by your ISP. When in BRIDGE or ROUTER mode:Which IP-address does the outside NIC card then get ? If you have more than one IP address from your ISP, or if you're running as a NAT router then you'll need a switch in order to add other systems to the network.Īll modern Macs support auto-mdix, so they'll work with a straight or crossover cable automatically.Ĥ. If running as a bridge you can only support a single host with your single IP address so you might as well connect directly.
#FOR VPN DO I NEED MAC ADDRESS OF WORK STATION OR ROUTER FREE#
Not only do free VPNs offer less protection, but they may also limit your bandwidth and speed, restricting your streaming experience. Regardless of how valuable a VPN is to you, it is always recommended to use a premium VPN service. I'm aware that the server needs 2 NIC cards: so should the ADSL modem be directly connected (via crossed Ethernet cable) to the (outside) NIC card or via a Switch ? If you’re using a free VPN, performance and speeds may be lacking. This may be a problem if there are other devices you want to share the ASDL line with. If you have one IP address you can support 1 host (e.g. However, when running as a bridge you lose any port forwarding abilities, so you're limited to the number of hosts you can support. If you configure the router as a bridge it should be transparent on the network and therefore no port forwarding issues should occur. If yes, should the ADSL-modem work in Router or Bridge mode (RFC1483/Bridge)? In addition your router needs to support GRE and not all of them do. If your router is running NAT then you ned to forward specific ports to the server. Is a PPTP/L2TP connection possible behind the ADSL-MODEM ?
