Microsoft ICS Mode Overview
MS ICS (Microsoft Internet Connection Sharing) mode provides wireless AP connectivity to
SoftGate clients and Internet Connection Sharing to an existing LAN through the SoftGate
hosts LAN adapter. When SoftGate is configured in MS ICS mode, SoftGate clients are
leased IP addresses using DHCP services from the SoftGate host. The range of IP addresses
assigned to clients in this mode are 192.168.0.0-255.
A typical scenario for configuring SoftGate in ICS mode is when the SoftGate host computer
is leased a single IP address from an ISP and multiple computers need to share a single
network connection through the ISP. The SoftGate host will provide wireless AP functionality,
DHCP service, and NAT services to SoftGate clients in such an environment.
