INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your purchase of the D-Link DI-701 Residential Gateway. Its main features include:

• Acts as a Firewall

• Protects your Computers from Intruders

• Share your Cable/DSL Modem

• Works with any Ethernet Connection

• Supports up to 32 Computers

The DI-701 functions as an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet-based Residential Gateway. It provides one 10/100 Dual Speed Ethernet port for connection to a home or small office network and one 10Mb Ethernet port for a DSL Modem, Cable Modem, or other Broadband access device.

The D-Link DI-701 provides the safety and security of both port blocking and a natural firewall as well as integrated NAT support that allows up to 32 users to share a single Internet Connection. Static address support, integrated client/server DHCP, and device name support will allow the D-Link Residential Gateway to connect to nearly any Broadband provider, and at the same time simplify local area network settings.

The DI-701 has one local 10/100 Dual Speed Ethernet port and one 10Mb Ethernet global port. The local port can be connected directly to a single computer to provide added security from hackers and others on the Internet or it can be connected to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hub or switch to provide Internet Sharing and Firewall protection to a local area network. The global port can be connected to any Cable, DSL, or Broadband modem with an Ethernet port.

The DI-701 provides two levels of security support. First, it masks local users’ IP addresses from others on the Internet making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Secondly it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. The user, to ensure that games and other Internet applications will run properly, can open specific ports.

Unlike proxy server or NAT software that requires the software server to remain visible on the Internet, no local computers are directly externally visible when using the DI-701. Also the DI-701, like broadband, is always on, removing the need to constantly boot a software server when access is desired from a client. No client software is required to connect to the DI-701 so it will support any operating system that can connect to a network whether PC or Apple based*.

Integrated DHCP services allow up to 128 users to get their IP address automatically on boot up from the DI-701. Client machines require no software, simply set them to accept a

dynamically assigned IP address and reboot. Each time they are powered up the DI-701 will recognize them and set their IP address to instantly connect them to the LAN.

For advanced users Virtual Service support allows the DI-701 to provide limited visibility to local machines and their services as dictated by the user. An ISP provided IP address can be set to the DI-701 and then specific services can be rerouted to specific computers on the local network. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the DI-701 and then incoming requests for HTML that are received by the DI-701 can be rerouted to the original server, even though the server now has a different IP address. In this example, the DI-701 is on the Internet and vulnerable to attacks, but the server is protected.

Virtual Service can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, the DI701 can be set to allow separate FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and local users from hackers.

* The DI-701’s GUI setup interface requires Windows 95, 98, NT or 2000. Telnet and Terminal setup are operating system independent.

1. Make sure your DI-701 is installed and connected properly. Use a UTP Ethernet cross-

over cable1 to connect the DSL/Cable Modem to the Global port. See Figure 2.

2. Use a CAT3 or CAT5 UTP Ethernet straight cable to connect the Local port to a free

port on your hub or switch OR Use a CAT 3 or CAT5 Cross-Over cable to connect directly to a PC.

3. Connect the Power Adapter to the VDC IN port on the DI-701 and into a wall outlet.

4. Use an RS-232 cable to connect from a Serial port on the administrator computer to the

Console port on the DI-701. (Optional - for terminal program configuration only.)

SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT

Your system must meet the following requirements to use the DI-701 Setup Program. IF you are using a Unix or Apple based system, telnet should be used to configure the DI-701:

Software Requirements

1. Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT installed.

2. Windows Graphic User Interface (GUI) setup program (provided) to configure through

Local Port; Or Use a terminal emulation program such as Windows HyperTerminal to configure

through the Console Port.

Gather and write down the following information before beginning:

Factory Default Settings

The LAN parameters of the DI-701 are pre-set in the factory. The default values are shown in Table 2: Local and Global Port Addresses.
