Tip 1: How to register a subnet
Tip 1: How to register a subnet
Computers are networked by certainrules. These rules determine the paths of the information packets. In case of incorrect organization, packets simply do not reach the addressees. In the process of setting up and connecting to the network of any computer, it becomes necessary to prescribe subnet, that is, assign the computer to a particular node.
Instructions
1
Click Start, and then click Run.from the appeared menu or an empty line immediately above the taskbar. Type the command to call the system console - cmd - and click OK. A black-and-white text box opens, enter the command for defining the network parameters: ipconfig. When you type, press the Enter key. All this is necessary in order to find out in what condition the network is at the moment. The console will display the diagnostic results, from which you need to find the Ethernet adapter "Network connection name". The following items will be listed below: ip-address and subnet mask.
2
Note that the subnet mask determines which subnet maskip-addresses will be included in one subnet and can directly exchange information. In other words, will these computers see each other or not. For example, the ip-address of the network adapter 192.168.5.2 - hence, the computer belongs to the fifth subnet. This is determined by the third part of the address. If you connect another machine to the same network, it must be on the same subnet as the other computers. And for this you need to register a subnet in the TCP / IP settings in Windows.
3
Click the "Start" button and select the "Control Panel" menu.
4
Open the Network Connections submenu and clickright click on the icon to connect to the network. This applies to the operating system Windows XP. The configuration window opens, where you find the line "Internet Protocol TCP / IP".
5
If you are using Windows 7 or Vista, in the "Control Panel" menu, select the "Network and Sharing Center" submenu. Then click the "Change adapter settings" link.
6
Select the link with the left mouse button, then click the "Properties" button.
7
Click on the button "Use the followingIP address "- then the" IP address "and" Subnet mask "fields will be available for editing. Enter the appropriate address in the first field - in our example it is 192.168.5.3 for the new computer that you want to connect to the network. The main rule is that the first three values of the IP address are the same on all computers on the same network. If an appropriate value has already been entered in this field, do not change it, but go directly to setting up the subnet mask.
8
Enter the numbers 255.255.255.0 and click OK. Click "Yes" if you receive a warning about changing the settings of the active network connection. This is a universal mask that is suitable for small local networks. Restart the computer for the changes to take effect.
Tip 2: How to register static routes
When setting up the server to accessInternet or other resources often have to register routes independently. This operation is sometimes necessary even when configuring routers or routers.
You will need
- - program WinRoute.
Instructions
1
Despite the fact that many routersautomatically register routes, you may need to manually enter specific addresses for various devices: TV-sets or other equipment. This is especially true when using a VPN connection. Select the computer connected to the router and run the Internet browser on it.
2
Open the web interface of the router settings. Navigate to the LAN settings and select Routing Table. Find the port number of the LAN for which you want to change the routes, and write down the addresses you need.
3
In the situation where the functions of the router inYour network is running a desktop computer, you need a WinRuote program. Download and install this application on your computer. Run this utility.
4
Now go to the Settings menu and open theThe "Routing Table" item. This program allows you to perform any manipulation with both static and dynamic routes. Note: when configuring and configuring dynamic routes, you will need to set new parameters after each reboot of the computer.
5
Click the "Add" button to registera new route for a specific port. Enter the IP address and subnet mask for the new route. Be sure to specify the network adapter for which you are creating the new route. In the event that access to the IP address specified above is via another network device, specify its IP in the "Default Gateway" field.
6
Given the fact that you are creating a staticroute, be sure to check the "Create Static Route" option. Press the OK button to save the settings. Note that if a route has already been registered for this adapter, it is wiser not to add a new one, but to change the parameters of the existing route.
Tip 3: How to register DIR-300 routes
Routers and routers with Wi-Fi support are usually used to create their own wireless access points. For correct operation of these devices, sometimes you need to set routes for a specific network adapter.
You will need
- Network cable.
Instructions
1
After installing the Wi-Fi router, connect to thea stationary computer through the LAN port. It is better to configure the access point through a cable connection, rather than through a Wi-Fi channel. Turn on the router and the computer. Wait until both devices have finished loading.
2
Open a web browser on your computer and enterThe IP address of the router. In the case of the D-Link DIR 300 device, you must enter 192.168.0.1. Press Enter and wait for the web interface to start.
3
Enter login and password. When you first turn on the router, fill both fields with the word admin. Open the WAN menu. Select the type of data transfer protocol and enter the parameters required to connect the device to the Internet. It is better to connect the provider cable to the WAN channel in advance. This will allow you to quickly evaluate the performance of the connection.
4
After setting up a connection to the server, go tothe Wi-Fi menu. Create your own wireless access point. Select the options that your mobile computers or cell phones can work with. In advance, specify supported network types (802.11 b, g, n) and data encryption options (WEP, WPA, WPA2).
5
Reboot the device after thesettings. Connect all computers to the LAN ports or wireless access point. Open the web-based interface of the router and go to the Routing menu. In the first field of the proposed table, enter the IP address of the network adapter of the computer or laptop.
6
In the second field, enter the IP address of the destinationserver, for example, the desired local resource. Fill the third field with the subnet mask. In the fourth field, specify the gateway through which this route is created. This can be the IP address of your router or another local computer. Save the settings. Restart the router.
