Macintosh Clients
From your Macintosh, you can access the Internet via the WL-108/109.
The procedure is as follows.
1. Open the TCP/IP Control Panel.
2. Select Ethernet from the Connect via pop-up menu.
3. Select Using DHCP Server from the Configure pop-up menu. The DHCP
Client ID field can be left blank.
4. Close the TCP/IP panel, saving your settings.
Note:
If using manually assigned IP addresses instead of DHCP, the required
changes are:
•
Set the Router Address field to the WL-108/109's IP Address.
•
Ensure your DNS settings are correct.
Linux Clients
To access the Internet via the WL-108/109, it is only necessary to set the
WL-108/109 as the "Gateway".
Ensure you are logged in as "root" before attempting any changes.
Fixed IP Address
By default, most Unix installations use a fixed IP Address. If you wish to
continue using a fixed IP Address, make the following changes to your
configuration.
•
Set your "Default Gateway" to the IP Address of the WL-108/109.
•
Ensure your DNS (Name server) settings are correct.
To act as a DHCP Client (recommended)
The procedure below may vary according to your version of Linux and X -
windows shell.
1. Start your X Windows client.
2. Select Control Panel - Network
3. Select the "Interface" entry for your Network card. Normally, this will
be called "eth0".
4. Click the Edit button, set the "protocol" to "DHCP", and save this data.
5. To apply your changes
•
Use the "Deactivate" and "Activate" buttons, if available.
•
OR, restart your system.
