BEFORE YOU ST AR T This chapter provides information about package contents and require- ments for installing the PalmRouter Elite. Package Overview Please check to make sure you have received the items listed below before setting up your PalmRouter Elite.
EASY INST ALLA TION Hardware Installation Modem Connection Connect one end of an RS-232 serial cable to the modem/ISDN T A. Connect the other end to either of the two DB-9 serial ports found on the back of the PalmRouter Elite.
The PalmRouter Elite can support up to two modem connections simulta- neously . The two serial ports labeled "SERIAL 1" and "SERIAL 2" can func- tion as dial-out connections. T o do so: 1) Connect the phone line to the modem/ISDN T A.
Software Configuration TCP/IP Network Configuration of Clients After installing the PalmRouter Elite hardware, the PalmRouter Elite needs to be configured through a W eb browser (such as Netscape Navigator, Netscape Communicator , or Microsoft Internet Explorer).
Windows 95 TCP/IP Configuration 1. Double click the Control Panel icon in My Computer folder . 2. From the Control Panel, double click on the Network icon to show the installed network interface card and network protocol on the Configuration list. Double click the TCP/IP protocol on the list.
4. After double clicking the installed TCP/IP protocol, the TCP/IP proper- ties window appears. Click IP Address and select the Obtain IP address automatically item. (This is a more convenient way to set up the TCP/IP configuration of clients that relies on the built-in DHCP server of the PalmRouter Elite).
5. If there is already a DHCP server on the network, or if you prefer not to use the PalmRouter Elite's DHCP function, you can still set up the TCP/IP configuration manually . Remember , the IP address you specify must be on the same subnet as the PalmRouter Elite's IP address to avoid IP address conflicts.
Mac OS TCP/IP Configuration 1. Open the TCP/IP control panel. 2. In Connect via field, select Ethernet if you intend to use the built-in Ethernet interface on mainboard, or select an alternate network driver if you have a third party Ethernet adapter installed in your computer .
4. If there is already a DHCP server on the network, or if you prefer not to use the PalmRouter Elite's DHCP function, you can select Manually to specify an IP address and other TCP/IP configuration information yourself.
5. Close the TCP/IP window and save the changes. Setting Up the PalmRouter Elite thr ough a W eb Browser 1. After performing the TCP/IP configuration of the computer that will manage the PalmRouter Elite, start the W eb browser to connect the PalmRouter Elite.

Advanced configuration 17 Filter In this part of the Intranet Setting menu, the IP Address Filter prevents up to 5 local network clients from accessing certain services on the Internet via the PalmRouter Elite. The specific types of Internet services to be filtered are based on the TCP port numbers which these services use for communica- tion.
V irtual Server It is possible to set up a server such as a W eb or FTP server on your net- work for Internet users to access. Internet users simply need to enter the IP address that has been assigned to your dial-up connection to get access to LAN servers.
Modem1 Setting Modem1 is the modem connected to the Serial1 port of the PalmRouter Elite. There are three parts to set up in this page. General Select the Line T ype and the Baud Rate from the pull-down menu. The selection in the Line T ype field includes Dial-up , Leased Line and ISDN .
