e. Internet Connection Wizard (ICW)
- Start the SBS Admin Console and run the ICW.
- When prompted: Select Broadband Connection.
- When prompted: Select External NIC.
- When prompted: Use the DNS Nameservers from your ISP as DNS Forwarders.
f. Check to make sure the External NIC IP address is not included in the LAT range. SBS Console | Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2000 | Servers and Arrays | | Network Configuration | Local Address Table (LAT)
Example:
If the external NIC has an IP address of 192.168.1.2 and the Internal NIC has an IP address of 192.168.16.2, then the range in the LAT should be 192.168.16.0 to 192.168.16.255 (which excludes the external NIC).
Please note: While the suggested IP addressing schema of the SBS 2000 is 192.168.16.x, you can utilitize any private IP address as recommended. Thus if you have a prior set up of 10.0.0.x, you may use that as well. When attaching Win98, or WinME computers, you may need to use hosts and lmhosts files to assist them in attaching to the network. Please see click on logon problems for additional detail.Please review the examples for additional information and guidance.
For additional features that can normally only be done with a static IP address, you may wish to sign up for dynamic DNS services such as www.dns2go.com or www.tzo.com that will provide you with these abilities. You will need to set your ISA server to allow for communication:
Name :[Insert your own]
enabled
custom
ip protocol: TCP
direction: both
local port: all ports
Remote port: Fixed port
Remote port number: 1227
