Step 8: Configure PPPoE Parameters
If your ISP uses the Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) and you
want to use the Cordless Gateway in NAT mode, then you must configure an
ISP User Name and ISP Password within the Symphony Maestro Configura-
tion Tool.
See “Configuring the ISP TCP/IP Settings” within Chapter 7 for instructions.
Step 9: Establish Communication
with an Ethernet Network
If you have attached the Cordless Gateway to an Ethernet network to allow
cordless computers to share files and printers with Ethernet devices, then you
must configure the Cordless Gateway to operate in Transparent Bridging
Mode only.
In addition, you must configure the TCP/IP settings for each cordless
computer if you do not have a DHCP server on your Ethernet network.
In order for Ethernet computers and cordless computers to communicate as
members of the same Local Area Network (LAN), you must configure all
devices (Ethernet and cordless) to use the same IP network.
By default, a Symphony-HRF or Symphony adapter is configured to accept
an IP address from a DHCP server. If you do not have a DHCP server on your
Ethernet network, then you must assign each cordless client computer with a
static IP address and other TCP/IP parameters, just as if you were configuring
another computer on your Ethernet backbone.
See “Configuring a Cordless Network to Use Transparent Bridging” within
Chapter 7 for details.
