How would I go about setting up a network at my house. I have two desktops and a netbook all hooked to a switch and the switch to the router.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been tasked with the technology update of our office and have have MAJOR questions which I hope can be answered here, so here goes;
First a little history, I have an electronics degree and a certificate in computer technology, so computers are not something new to me, however networking IS.I have a VERY LIMITED budget to work with, which I'm sure is not unheard of before, with the following equipment already available:
1 MFP currently on lease connected via network
3 totally junk PCs running 3 different versions of Windows from XP to 7
A DSL internet connection
A wireless router
A wired 8 port switch
What I would like to do is begin with a basic server, 7 clients, shared internet on all machines (including external via login), An MFP, at least 1 NAS for data storage, 1 NAS for backup of all drives.
What are the best network engineering practises for a small/medium sized office?Currently I have set it up like this:The top floor has all the sales people, each desk has a hub underneath which connects all computers at that desk together, and the hum is connected to a switch under the floor. There are about about 8 desks each with about 4 computers, so 8 hubs.They all go into a 10/100 switch, which is then connected to an 1gb switch on the bottom floor via a 1gb port on the top floor switch, via a cat6 cable.We then have internet > modem > router > the 1gb switch. Our main server is also connected to that switch along with all the computers for the ground floor, except these computers have 1gb switches under the desks instead of hubs. The main server is the DHCP, DC, DNS and file server. We have also setup another server which acts as a backup DC and is also a DNS server.Is there anything wrong with this configuration? We have been having problems with the router losing connection to the internet and warnings on the main DNS server.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to setup a simple VPN on a small network, nothing special, just to provide access to some simple resources on the network from anywhere. Since I'm not a Cisco expert, I was advised to user a 861 router, but I just can't seem to get the VPN working on this device.
I've placed the router behind a modem and did some basic configuration. Hosts who are connected to the modem (on the Vlan side) can access the internet and can setup a VPN connection to the router. A VPN connection from inside the network is worthless, but I just can't get the VPN working on the FastEthernet4 connection.
Any VPN config for a 861 router for this situation? Or how to configure this device as a VPN server?
I would like to setup a small home network with an ASA firewall and an 871 router for testing purpose so I can get familar with the ASA commands and concepts. Is there sample config I can be pointed to?

Users will work on multiple projects, and only those users assigned to a project should have access to the project files. You’re instructed to set up the network to make it easy to manage and back up. Would you choose a peer-to-peer network, a server-based network, or a combination of both?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to setup a wifi network in my office that can support 200+ users at a time. I'm trying to but I have very limited knowledge about networking. We currently have 2 5MBPS internet leased lines. The total office area is around 2000sq ft, all open, separated by glass walls only. I'm thinking about buying a powerful load balancing router and a switch, then connected 4-6 wireless router to this switch and give single wireless SSIDs to all routers. I want to keep one single network for all the users. Is this the right way to do?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI presently have a fiber internet connection to my office with about 40 wireless users on a single AP. The connection keeps dropping. Probably due to too many users on a single AP?
1. My question is similar to aniketchitale's, can get another wireless router, create a different SSID (eg. router1 and router2), but both wireless routers still connected to the same fiber connection. In other words, I would like to segregate the first 20 users to router 1 and the next 20 users to router 2.
2. By having 2 wireless routers each with their unique SSID, will all the users still be able to access to the same printer in the office?
Right now every computer is connected through a workgroup and some computers are sharing files to everyone and some need a login to share other files. I want to run a main server where all the files are on that computer and have it share all the files to everyone else on the network. I'm not too familiar with Windows workgroup networking and file sharing.I want to have certain files accessible to certain computers and certain files accessible to everyone on the network. I'm under the impression that I have to have the main server with all the business documents. Then create separate accounts on the server and hand them out to each individual computer. After, go to each document and specify who can access what with read/write. Can I share some files to everyone and have certain files limited to other computers at the same time? How would someone access the shared files when you need a login and will this login conflict with files shared to everyone and files shared to certain people. I remember on my small business network I need a login for certain computers because it is shared to only certain people then how would I access the files shared to everyone when I have to login to see the server files to begin with?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a lot of 6913's handling our office ports and I'd like to know a simple way to find multiple ports knowing their description.
I'm use to Juniper so if I were looking for the 8 ports for the office's 3190-3199 I would type something similar to:
show | display set | match 319
I know I can use | include with a show run on Cisco but that won't pull the interface just the description.
SLM2008T does not have the ability to add Port Description or Login Banner like the SG300's do? I knew there would be some features that the 200 would lack, but I've never seen a smart switch that did not have the capability of labeling the ports via software/web admin. Really makes it easier to keep your head screwed on straight when you are in and out of 14 or more switches during the course of a day.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently saw a Cisco demo of ISE with a customer and the Cisco SE was setting the port description to the logged in username (dot1x). I can't find any docs on doing this. I did find some old ACS docs that mention using an AV pair and sending aaa:suplicant-name in the result, but that isn't working. I'm trying this on a 3750. and using ISE.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am a networking student so have access to a free copy of Windows Server 2012. I want to setup and get experience with AD, DHCP, and DNS, among other services. Right now I have a Netgear router attached to a Cisco switch. (studying for CCENT cert) I have my desktop and server plugged into switch. I want my desktop to connect to the domain for testing and messing aroudn with. My wife has a netboook, smartphone, and wireless ipod. I'd like her 3 devices to get an IP from the DHCP server without having her authenticate to the server. Will the Netgear router allow this since wirless access is on? Or will she need to authenticate with the server to get a DHCP IP? I am gonig to disable the router's DHCP service.

i'm trying to setup a local DNS server to manage small office local-only domain names for our servers. i have the DNS working properly (resolving local machines and using the ISP dns if it can't). so i put the DNS server ip into the "Static DNS 1" field of the router settings. the other 2 static dns fields are empty.the problem is that the router is still using the ISP dns server as the primary and my local dns server as the secondary. i verify this in two places. first, if i go to the "status" tab, DNS 1 shows the ISP server while DNS 2 shows my local DNS server. secondly, if i connect to the wireless device with a linux-based machine, the /etc/resolv.conf file shows the nameserver ips in the same incorrect order.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have DIR-615 Cx (bought in Taiwan) Hardware C2 ver. I reflashed with DIR-615 firmware from Singapore to get English interface. I connect to a internet through another router on which I setup D-Link on DMZ with port forwarding. Router works fine, I have internet connection. So the question is: I have small cafe and want to offer customers WiFi connection. I want to setup a time limit and allow them to browse only internet not internal network. (When I connect laptop to D-Link Wifi I can see my NAS on different subnet connected to cable modem/router) And if its possible to limit bandwidth. Can I do it with DIR-615 and how to configure such a setup?

I'm involved in setting up a new office for a business that's just starting out. I have some computer experience but not a whole lot in networking and security. We just have 3 people that will be working in the office and we need a way to store/backup/share files on the network as well as a way to access them remotely if need be. Our internet service is going to be providing us with a static IP. I was thinking that we could use an NAS with RAID 1 attached to the router, which is in turn connected to the cable modem, but I'm not sure if this is secure. Do we need some type of hardware firewall in between the cable modem and the router to protect us from the outside?

I work for a small business of five computers. We have a wireless network for internet traffic, and a wired network for file sharing. The wireless network works great for using the internet, but we are having trouble with the wired network.The issue is being able to communicate with all of the computers on the wired network. The ability to speak with all of the computers on the network is hit or miss. Generally, computer A can speak with computer B, C, and D, but D can only speak with A.
