Introduction

Getting Started with the Configuration

• RV016: Connect an Ethernet cable from the Internet 2 port to a second

broadband network device.

STEP 4 To connect a computer or server that will be a DMZ host:

• RV042, RV042G, and RV082: Connect an Ethernet cable from the DMZ/

Internet port to the DMZ host.

• RV016: Connect an Ethernet cable from the DMZ port to the DMZ host.

STEP 5 To connect other network devices, such as computers, print servers, or Ethernet

switches, connect an Ethernet cable from a numbered LAN port to the network device.

STEP 6 Power on the broadband network device(s).

STEP 7 Use the power adapter (RV042 and RV042G) or the power cable (RV082 and

RV016) to connect the router to a power outlet. The System status light is green.

STEP 8 Power on the other network devices.

Getting Started with the Configuration

STEP 1 Connect a computer to a numbered LAN port on the router. Your PC will become a

DHCP client of the router and will receive an IP address in the 192.168.1.x range.

STEP 2 Start a web browser. To use the configuration utility, you need a PC with Internet

Explorer (version 6 and higher), Firefox, or Safari (for Mac).

STEP 3 In the address bar, enter the default IP address of the router: 192.168.1.1

STEP 4 When the login page appears, enter the default user name admin and the default

password admin (lowercase).

STEP 5 Click Login. The System Summary page appears.

The router’s default settings are sufficient for many small businesses. Your Internet Service Provider may require additional settings. On the System Summary page, check the WAN Status to see if the router was able to receive an IP Address. If not, continue to the next step.

Cisco Small Business RV0xx Series Routers Administration Guide 16

Introduction

Getting Started with the Configuration

STEP 6 To use the setup wizard to configure your Internet connection, click Setup Wizard

on the System Summary page, or click Wizard in the navigation tree. In the Basic Setup section, click Launch Now. Follow the on-screen instructions.

If your web browser displays a warning message about the pop-up window, allow the blocked content.

STEP 7 To configure other settings, use the links in the navigation tree.

Cisco strongly recommends setting a strong administrator password to prevent unauthorized access to your router. For more information about all settings, refer to the online Help and the Cisco Small Business RV0xx Series VPN Router Administration Guide.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you have trouble connecting to the Internet or the web-based configuration utility:

• Verify that your web browser is not set to Work Offline.

• Check the Local Area Connection settings for your Ethernet adapter. The PC

needs to obtain an IP address through DHCP. Alternatively, it can have a static IP address in the 192.168.1.x range with the default gateway set to

192.168.1.1 (the router’s default IP address).

• Verify that you entered the correct settings in the Wizard to set up your

Internet connection, including the username and password if required.

• Try resetting the modem and the router by powering off both devices. Next,

power on the modem and let it sit idle for about 2 minutes. Then power on the router. You should now receive a WAN IP address.

• Check the DHCP IP address range of your modem. If the modem uses the

192.168.1.x range, disconnect the cable from the modem to the router, and then launch the router configuration utility. In the navigation tree, choose Setup > Network. Enter a new Device IP Address, such as 10.1.1.1 or

192.168.0.1. Alternatively, if you have a DSL modem, leave all settings as is and instead ask your ISP to put the DSL modem into bridge mode.

• Host Name: Keep the default setting or enter a host name specified by your

ISP.

• Domain Name: Keep the default setting or enter a domain name specified

by your ISP.

IP Mode

Choose the type of addressing to use on your network:

• IPv4 Only—Use only IPv4 addressing.

• Dual-Stack IP—Use IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. After you enable this option

by saving the settings on this page, you can configure both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for LAN, WAN, and DMZ settings on this page.

LAN Setting (device IP address and subnets)

The default LAN settings should be sufficient for most small businesses, but if needed, you can change the LAN IP address of the router and enable multiple subnets.

• Changing the device IP address, page 28

• Enabling multiple subnets (IPv4 only), page 29

NOTE If you enabled Dual-Stack IP for the IP Mode, you can click the IPv6 tab to configure

IPv6 addresses.

Changing the device IP address

STEP 1 Enter the following information:

• For IPv4: Click the IPv4 tab, and then enter the Device IP Address and

Subnet Mask. The default IP address is 192.168.1.1, and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Note: The MAC address of the router also appears in this section. This value cannot be changed.

• For IPv6: Click the IPv6 tab, and then enter the IPv6 Address and the Prefix

Length. The default IP address is fc00::1, and the default prefix length is 7. The IPv6 tab is available only if Dual-Stack IP is enabled in the IP Mode section. If you change the IP Mode setting, you must save the settings before you continue.

Note: To configure global IPv6 prefixes for your LAN devices, go to the WAN Settings section, click the IPv6 tab, and click the Edit icon for the WAN

interface. Then enter the LAN IPv6 Address. For more information, see WAN

Setting (Internet connection), page 31.

STEP 2 Click Save to save your changes, or click Cancel to undo them.

address in the new DHCP range for the router.

Notes:

• To release and renew your address in Windows: From the Start menu, open

the Network Connections window. Right-click on the connection and choose Disable. Right-click again and enable the connection. To verify, rightclick and choose Status. Then click the Support tab to view the assigned IP address.

• By default, the router is a DHCP server that assigns IP addresses

dynamically to all connected devices. For example, if you choose

192.168.15.1 as the device IP address, devices will receive IP addresses in the range of 192.168.2.x.

• By default, a Windows PC receives an IP address dynamically.

• If you previously disabled the router’s DHCP server or set a static IP address

on the PC, you will need to configure a new static IP address in the new range.

STEP 4 To reconnect to the configuration utility, enter the new device IP address in the

address bar of your browser.

Enabling multiple subnets (IPv4 only)

Typically, a Cisco RV0xx Series router is used as an access router, with a single LAN subnet. By default, the firewall is pre-configured to deny LAN access if the source IP address is on a different subnet than the router’s LAN IP address. However, you can enable multiple subnets to allow this router to work as an edge device that provides Internet connectivity to different subnets in your LAN.

STEP 1 On the IPv4 tab, check the Enable Multiple Subnet box to enable this feature.

Uncheck the box to disable this feature.

STEP 2 Click Add/Edit to create or modify the subnets. After you click the button, the

Multiple Subnet Management window appears.

STEP 3 In the pop-up window, add or edit entries as needed.

• To a dd a new su bn et : Enter a LAN IP Address and a Subnet Mask. Click Add

to list. The IP address and subnet mask appear in the list. Repeat this step as needed to add other subnets.

Examples:

- Two subnets: If the router has a LAN IP address of 192.168.1.1 with a

subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, you could set up a second subnet with a LAN IP address of 192.168.2.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.

- Four subnets: If the router has a LAN IP Address of 192.168.1.1 and the

Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.192, you could create three subnets with IP addresses of 192.168.2.65, 192.168.2.129, and 192.168.2.193, with the same subnet mask of 255.255.255.192.

• To add another subnet: Enter the information, and then click Add to list.

• To modify a subnet: Click the subnet in the list. The existing values appear

in the text fields. Enter the new information, and then click Update. If you do not want to modify the selected subnet, you can click Add New to clear the text fields.

• To d ele te a su bn et: Click the subnet in the list, and then click Delete.
