bridging two ICS lan segments on one server possible ?
92754
You can put two LAN segments in a server by adding network cards and sharing them through ICS. However they will each have their own modems and won't be teamed up together for more bandwidth.

Noticed the following from your question:\n\n1. You need to segregate you LAN from WAN. \n2. You need to build redundancy in the WAN connections\n\nBefore I start answering to those requirements, some important things for you to consider.\n1. what equipment do you have now? \n2. How much bandwidth do you need?\n3. Do you really need redundancy on WAN front (are there issues with ISP connectivity)\n\nIf the switches that you have support Layer 3 (MLS) switching, then you should enable it and ensure that your LAN needs are handled by the switches. Use one port of the 16-port switch to connect the 8-port one, and another to connect the router.\n\nAlso, I do not understand why you need to restart the router for applying configuration changes on specific interfaces. You might consider a SOHO Cisco router, which allows you do most of the configuration changes using either a command-line shell (SSH) or using SNMP utilities\n\n\nbtw, for a more accurate answer to your problem, you might want to post information on \n1. Your current hardware specifics (model no, supported tech etc)\n2. What is the issue that you exactly face.\n\nAlso, it would be nice to be nice when you ask a question. After all you are asking for help! ;)

nope thats not possible unless that modem supports two enthernet ports.....you will have to go with a router or unless you want to unplug one ethernet and hook it up to the other and yeah...i would buy a router it has two more firewall built in ....go with wireless G or Wireless N

Yes you can, either buy a cross over cable, or make one!\n\nThe cheapest way and, not always the most appealing method\n\nClip the following wires in half.\n\nSolid green\nSolid orange\nWhite with green stripe\nWhite with orange stripe\n\nNow cross these wires as follows:\n\nSolid green on end one crosses with solid orange on end two.\nSolid orange on end one crosses with solid green on end two.\n\nWhite with green stripe on end one crosses with white with orange stripe on end two\n\nWhite with orange stripe on end one crosses with white with green stripe on end two.\n\nYou can use this method to splice the wires instead of getting a crimper, but it is advised to solder the wires together, and cover well with electrical tape, or shrink-wrap.\n\nThis is a bit ghetto, but informative I suppose.\n\nRun the Internet connection sharing wizard in windows.\n\nDo keep in mind that unless you use the USB cable supplied with your modem "I do not recommend" you will need two Ethernet cards in the PC connected to the modem.\n\nOne for connecting to the modem and  one to connect to the other computer.\n\nMyself I prefer using a router, ICS is just not reliable enough for me!

With the help of ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) you  will be able to share your internet connection (what ever it is) to a Windows 98 machine provided both of them are able to communicate over a TCP/IP protocol.

This would depend how you'll be connecting your router up and why.\n\nIf you are simply cascading them, and the second router will just act like a switch/hub, this'll be easy.  Meaning you really don't need its DHCP capability and your main purpose is just to expand your network. This is when you've connected the 2nd router to the 1st via ethernet port.\n\nJust make sure the 2nd router is 0n the same IP segment as the first router - e.g., 1st router is 192.168.1.1, then set the 2nd router as 192.168.1.2, and turn off the second router's DHCP capability. On the new models, you can find this on the Basic Setup page - it may say something like "Local DHCP Server".\n\nIf you're adding the 2nd router as a different part of your network, this is a bit more complicated.  Its just like what halfMt said.  I believe you may need to setup Static routing for your network.\n\nBest to email Linksys about this (good if both routers are Linksys, if not contact both manufacturers of your routers).

There is a solution to do this that will work without using a hub/switch. It's really kind of easy and not too hard to set up.\n\nTHE HARDWARE - \n\n3 PCI 10/100 NICs\nI reccommend Linksys cards. They tend to work the best in my experience. 3Com are nice to have, but tend to run a little spendier. \nSome computers will have the ports you need built in. Look on the back of your computer. You should see some ports that look like phone jacks. You can distinguish a phone jack from a network jack by the number of gold pins that are in the center of the jack. If there are four pins, thats a telephone line (RJ-11). Eight Pins signifies a network jack (RJ-45).\n\nYou will also need a Cat5 Crossover Cable. If you don't have one or you don't know what I'm talking about, go to your local Best Buy, Radio Shack, WalMart etc and try to find one in the computer section. Its very important that it says CROSSOVER. \n\nSOFTWARE-\n\nWindows XP. Thats it.\n\nTHE SETUP-\n\n1) Install the network cards so that one machine has two network ports in it and one machine has only one. \n\n2) Install any drivers that came with the NICs. \n\n3) Hook up the cable modem / dsl modem so that the network port on the modem connects to one of the network ports on the machine that has two network ports.\n\n4) Connect the crossover cables between the open network port on the computer with two network ports and the computer that has only one network port.\n\n5) On the computer connected to the modem, set up Internet Connection Sharing. (For tips on how to do this, visit Microsofts website <a href=http://www.microsoft.com>here</a>.\n\nThat's It! Enjoy the internet on two seperate computers.

First there is no ICS in Linux..\nyou should be ok with the next line\niptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -i ethX -j MASQUERADE\nwhere ethX is your network card for your private network

Didn't you ask this same question yesterday?  If there were no standards, then parts wouldn't be interchangeable.  Also, for LAN standards, do a search on TCP/IP subnetting.

if one router is directly connected, it will be assigned an ip and it will make a subnet

This is a networking problem - look up 'Linear Bus', 'Star' or 'Hub', 'Token Ring' and 'Fully Connected Mesh'.\n\nYou need 21 for a fully connected topology, but you could do it with far less.

If you are using Windows XP, then you can enable ICS, (Internet Connection Sharing) and you won't have to purchase any hardware. You may need additional cable to attach the other computers to the one with the internet connection. This link provides info on how to enable ICS.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/crawford_02july01.mspx

With LAN, just a crossover cable will suffice. with wifi then an absolute doddle.\n\nThere is a wizard to help you set the netwrk up, run it on both machines, make sure that both machines are marked belonging to the same group : mshome for example - and away you go.\n\nIf you have problems, please be a tiny bit more specific - eg; hardware or software queries.\n\nYou do *** NOT *** need a server to connect two PC's, you do not even need a hub.

Sounds like you might mean a KVM switch, or you can even RDP from one PC into the other.

It can be done, but you usually use a switch not a router for the second one.  You need a crossover cable to do it.  A regular RJ-45 does not do.\n\nThey look the same, but a cross over switches the wires.  A switch usually has a port that does that for you, routers do not.\n\n-Dio

What is it you are trying to accomlish? You would also have to tweak the computer routing tables to tell it which subnet routes out which NIC. If you are trying to do some form of bundling to increase your network performance you are going to need some third party software

just enable the ICS and uninstall analog proxy Or add port ange of 5000 to 5100 and 5050 \n\nif u using proxy go to 2nd pc and take connections tick use proxy and set the ip of proxy .. port too ...
