In order to gather the information necessary to complete the table, you will need to run the /sbin/ipconfig command. You will also need to examine the following files:

/etc/sysconfig/network

/etc/resolv.conf.

Please refer to your Linux documentation for information on access- ing these files.

2. Install The Hardware

Follow these steps to connect the router to your network:

1.Turn the power off to your computers, modem and the router.

2.Connect an Ethernet cable from your Cable/DSL modem to the router’s WAN port.

3.Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer’s Ethernet port to one of the LAN ports on the router. Repeat the process to connect other computers to the router. If you have more com- puters to add than you have router ports, simply add a hub or switch to one of the router ports. This creates additional avail- able ports.

4.Optional: Use a DB-9 to DB-25 serial cable to connect a straight through modem cable from your external backup mo- dem to the router’s COM port.

5.Turn on the power to the router FIRST, and let it power up. The router will enter a self-test mode where the status light will blink for a few seconds and then stop. The router is ready for opera- tion. Now you may turn on the power to the devices that are attached to the router.
