    This appendix is a brief general introduction to IP addressing. A basic understanding of IP will help you in configuring the Netopia R310 and using some of its powerful features, such as static routes and packet filtering. In packets, a header is part of the envelope information that surrounds the actual data being transmitted. In e-mail, a header is usually the address and routing information found at the top of messages.
  • Page 228: Subnets And Subnet Masks

    D-2 User’s Reference Guide IP addresses indicate both the identity of the network and the identity of the individual host on the network. The number of bits used for the network number and the number of bits used for the host number can vary, as long as certain rules are followed.
  • Page 229: Example: Using Subnets On A Class C Ip Internet

    When setting up IP routing with a Class A Address, or even multiple Class C Addresses, subnetting is fairly straightforward. Subnetting a single Class C address between two networks, however, is more complex. This section describes the general procedures for subnetting a single Class C network between two Netopia routers so that each can have Internet access.
  • Page 230 Below is a diagram of a simple network configuration. The ISP is providing a Class C address to the customer site, and both networks A and B want to gain Internet access through this address. Netopia R310 B connects to Netopia R310 A and is provided Internet access through Routers A and B.
  • Page 231: Example: Working With A Class C Subnet

    ISP's equipment. The most important item in this configuration is the Static Route defined on Router B. This tells Router B what path to take to get to the network defined by Netopia R310 B. Without this information, Customer Site B will be able to access Customer Site A, but not the Internet.
  • Page 232: Technical Note On Subnet Masking

    These two methods are not mutually exclusive; you can manually issue some of the addresses while the rest are distributed by the Netopia R310. Using the Router in this way allows it to function as an address server. One reason to use the Netopia R310 as an address server is that it takes less time than manually distributing the addresses.

    DHCP address lease for one hour. The Netopia R310 does release the DHCP address back to the available DHCP address pool precisely one hour after the last heard lease request as some other DHCP implementations may hold on to the lease for an additional time after the lease expired, to act as a buffer for variances in clocks between the client and server.
  • Page 234: Manually Distributing Ip Addresses

    For a DYNAMIC address, the Netopia R310 will release the address back to the address pool after it has lost contact with the Mac workstation for over 2 minutes. For a STATIC address, the Netopia R310 will release the address back to the address pool after it has lost contact with the Mac workstation for over 20 minutes.

    These two protocols specify two different ways to organize the very first signals in the sequence of electrical signals that make up an IP packet travelling over Ethernet. By default, the Netopia R310 uses Ethernet packet headers for IP traffic. If your network requires 802.3 IP framing, you must configure this through SNMP.
  • Page 239: Network Configuration

    R310 uses a one-to-many IP address mapping scheme, that is against a single IP address the Netopia R310 acquires on its WAN interface the Netopia R310 can proxy 14, 30, or an unlimited number of IP hosts on the LAN interface.
  • Page 240 192.168.5.1 and the address of the Router at the ISP is 200.1.1.1. Assuming that the addresses negotiated by the routers are valid and unique for the Internet, the Netopia R310 and the hosts on its LAN would be able to access the Internet.
  • Page 241 Dst Port:: 5001 As you can see, the IP packet from Workstation A is sent to the Netopia R310 and the source IP address is substituted with 200.1.1.40 and the source port is substituted with 5001, then the IP packet checksum is recalculated.
  • Page 242 Now both IP packets have the exact same source IP address (200.1.1.40) and source ports (400). The way the Netopia R310 is then able to distinguish between the two IP packets is to change the source TCP or UDP ports and keep this information in an internal table.
  • Page 243: Exported Services

    If you were to look at the internal port mapping table that is maintained by the Netopia R310, it would look similar to the following: Source LAN IP 192.168.5.2 192.168.5.3 With this information the Netopia R310 can determine the appropriate routing for an IP response from the Internet.

    Device Event History. When using NAT it is most likely that the Netopia R310 will be receiving an IP address from a “pool” of dynamic IP addresses at the ISP. This means that the Netopia R310's IP presence on the Internet will change with each connection.
