If the VioGate server connects to the Internet through the broadband service,
please use the gateway IP address supplied by your ISP. If your network is a
LAN to LAN network, please contact your network administrator to configure
the correct gateway IP address to connect to other network segment. If you do
not wish to setup any gateway, please set this value to 0.0.0.0.
Use broadband connection to the Internet (PPPoE)
PPPoE is often used in dial-up ADSL broadband service. You have to use the account
username, and password provided by your ISP to connect to the Internet successfully.
Use DHCP if failed to connect
If the server fails to connect to the internet using the PPPoE protocol, it will
attempt to obtain IP address information through DHCP service.
Enable Dynamic DNS service
If you wish to let users on the internet to use a domain name to connect to the VioGate
server, you can activate the dynamic domain name service. Please apply for an
account and register for a dynamic domain name at a dynamic domain name service
provider. (For detail information, please refer to appendix B). After you’ve registered
a dynamic domain name and complete the setup, your VioGate server will
automatically update the dynamic IP address information with the service provider’s
server. What follows is the detail description on the various fields configurable.
Username, Password, Server Name
Please enter the information you provided when you open an account on the
dynamic domain name service provider’s website.
Dynamic IP Address or Static IP Address
If your VioGate server connects to the Internet through a permanent ADSL
connection, then you will obtain a set of static IP address from your ISP. You can
then choose to use static IP address when you are registering a dynamic domain
name. If on the other hand, your VioGate server connects to the Internet through
a dial-up ADSL or Cable Modem connection, your IP address is dynamically
assigned. Please choose the correct IP address type when you are registering for
the dynamic domain name. For a more detailed description, please refer to the
help page on the dynamic domain server provider’s website.
Specify DNS server.
If you wish to assign a specific DNS server, please enter its IP address here.
Enable Multicast
Using multicast allows the server to simultaneously send a message to multiple clients.
