1.3 Preliminary setup

1.3.1 LAN and TCP/IP setup

This section of the manual provides important information to keep in mind when setting up the first

connection between your computer and SI2000 Ganymede 822+ Router.

The factory default settings of the SI2000 Ganymede 822+ Router have values listed bellow:

Local IP address: 192.168.1.1

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

DHCP server: Disabled

User defined IP address

The default option is to set up the connection by yourself. In this case you must specify the IP

address of your system. Be careful that the subnet values of your system and the router are the

same, e.g. 192.168.1.0 (IP address 192.168.1.1 for router and IP address 192.168.1.2 for computer).

Example is shown on the picture bellow.

The IP address of the router can also be changed, you can learn about that under the WEB

management connection sections of the manual.

Obtain an IP automatically

If you enable DHCP server in Ganymede 822+, is the easiest way to set up a connection to

configure the LAN adapter on your system to obtain an IP automatically. This can be done in your

operational system by managing the Local Area Connection Properties. The TCP/IP protocol must

be installed on your system and set to obtain an IP address automatically. Example is shown on the

figure 7.

where <ipaddress> is the Local IP address of the SI2000 Ganymede 822+ Router, e.g.

192.168.1.1 for factory default settings. The IP addresses of router and computer must be

parts of the same IP network (e.g. 192.168.1.0).

You are asked to enter username and password:

Enter the user name user and password user. Click OK to continue.

2.2 Addressing

An IP address is a unique value that identifies Ganymede822p. A subnet mask defines a range of IP

addresses for a given IP address.

Both IP addresses and subnet masks consist of four numbers. Each number in an IP address and

subnet mask is a value between 0 and 255.

More information about IP addresses and subnet masks can be found in the Ganymede822p User

Guide.

The Addressing page displays the IP address and subnet mask for Ganymede822p. These provide a

unique address for Ganymede822p, as well as giving it the range of addresses to use for other PCs

that are connected to Ganymede822p. Ganymede822p's default IP address and subnet mask is

suitable for most networks.

2.4 Advanced Security

Ganymede822p contains advanced security features that prevent other computers on the Internet

from connecting to your PCs. You should only change the default security settings if you have

experience in network configuration. In most cases you will not need to make any changes.

You can configure Ganymede822p to allow PCs on your network to accept connections from other

computers on the Internet. You need to do this if you want to access certain applications from that

PC, such as some network games, chat or file sharing software. Ganymede822p already knows

about certain Internet applications.

To allow an application to send packets to a PC on your network, Ganymede822p needs to know:

• which protocol the application uses, e.g., NetMeeting (h323) uses TCP

• which ports the applications uses, e.g., NetMeeting (h323) uses TCP port 1720

• which applications require triggers to open secondary ports in order to transport packets,

e.g., NetMeeting (h323) requires secondary port 30000

Ganymede822p already knows the protocol, port and trigger information necessary to allow many

applications to access PCs on your network, so you do not have to enter this information manually.

Once you enable one of the common applications from the list, Ganymede822p automatically uses

the correct port, protocol and (if necessary) trigger settings to allow the application to pass traffic.
