Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P
C-2 Preparing Your Network
December 2003, M-10177-01
In your IP network, each computer and the firewall must be assigned a unique IP addresses. Each
computer must also have certain other IP configuration information such as a subnet mask
(netmask), a domain name server (DNS) address, and a default gateway address. In most cases,
you should install TCP/IP so that the computer obtains its specific network configuration
information automatically from a DHCP server during bootup. For a detailed explanation of the
meaning and purpose of these configuration items, refer to “Appendix B, “Network, Routing, and
Firewall Basics.”
The FWG114P Wireless Firewall/Print Server is shipped preconfigured as a DHCP server. The
firewall assigns the following TCP/IP configuration information automatically when the PCs are
rebooted:
Computer or workstation IP addresses—192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.254
Subnet mask—255.255.255.0
Gateway address (the firewall)—192.168.0.1
These addresses are part of the IETF-designated private address range for use in private networks.
Configuring Windows 95, 98, and Me for TCP/IP Networking
As part of the computer preparation process, you need to manually install and configure TCP/IP on
each networked computer. Before starting, locate your Windows CD; you may need to insert it
during the TCP/IP installation process.
