Frequently As ked Que stion s

Why can´t I access the Web-based configuration?

When entering the IP Address of the DI-824VUP (192.168.0.1), you are not
connecting to the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet. The device ha s the
utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same
IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.

To resolve difficulties accessing a W eb utility, plea se follow the steps below.

Step 1

you do not get a solid link light, try using a different cable or connect to a different
port on the device, if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be
on.

V erify physical connectivity by checking f or solid link lights on the device. If

What type of cable should I be using?

The following connections require a Crossover Cable:

Computer to Computer
Computer to Uplink Port
Computer to Access Point
Computer to Print Server
Computer/XBOX/PS2 to D WL-810
Computer/XBOX/PS2 to D WL-900AP+
Uplink Port to Uplink Port (hub/switch)
Normal Port to Normal Port (hub/switch)

The following connections require a Straight-through Cable:

Computer to Residential Gateway/Router
Computer to Normal Port (hub/switch)
Access Point to Normal Port (hub/switch)
Print Server to Normal Port (hub/switch)
Uplink Port to Normal Port (hub/switch)

Rule of Thumb:
”If there is a link light, the cable is right.”

What type of cable should I be using? (continued)

What´s the difference between a crossover cable and a straight-through
cable?

The wiring in crossover and straight-through cable s are different. The two types
of cable have different purposes for different
LAN configurations. EIA/TIA 568A/568B
define the wiring standards a nd allow for
two different wiring color codes a s
illustrated in the following diagra m.

*The wires with colored backgrounds may
have white stripes a nd may be denoted
that way in diagrams f ound elsewhere.

How to tell straight-through cable from
a crossover cable:

The main way to tell the difference
between the two cable types is to compare
the wiring order on the ends of the cable. If
the wiring is the same on both sides, it is
straight-through cable. If one side ha s opposite wiring, it is a crossover cable.

All you need to remember to properly configure the cables is the pinout order of
the two cable ends and the f ollowing rules:

A straight-through ca ble ha s identical ends
A crossover ca ble ha s different ends

It makes no function al difference which standard you f ollow for straight-through
cable ends, a s long as both ends are the sa me. You ca n start a crossover ca ble
with either standard as long a s the other end is the other sta ndard. It ma kes no
functional difference which end is which. The order in which you pin the cable is
important. Using a pattern other tha n what is specif ied in the above diagra m
could cause connection problems.

When to use a crossover cable and when to use a straight-through cable:

Computer to Computer – Crossover
Computer to an normal port on a Hub/Switch – Straight-through
Computer to an uplink port on a Hub/Switch – Crossover
Hub/Switch uplink port to another Hub/Switch uplink port – Crossover

Hub/Switch uplink port to another Hub/Switch normal port – Straight-through

How do I open ports on my DI-824VUP?

T o allow traff ic from the internet to
enter your local network, you will need
to open up ports or the router will
block the request.

Step 1 Open your W eb browser and

enter the IP Addre ss of your D-Link
router (192.168.0.1). Enter userna me
(admin) and your pa ssword (bla nk by
default).

Step 2 Click on Advanced on top

and then click Virtual Server on the
left side.

Step 3 Check Enabled to activate

entry.

Step 4 Enter a na me for your virtual server entry .
Step 5 Next to Private IP, enter the IP Address of the computer on your local

network that you want to allow the incoming service to.

Step 6 Choose Protocol T ype - either TCP, UDP, or both. If you are not sure, select

both.

Step 7 Enter the port information next to Private Port and Public Port. The private

and public ports are usually the same. The public port is the port seen from the WAN
side, and the private port is the port being used by the application on the computer
within your local network.

Step 8 Enter the Schedule information.
Step 9 Click Apply a nd then click Continue.

Note: Make sure DMZ host is disabled. If DMZ is enabled, it will disable all Virtual
Server entries.

Because our routers use NA T (Network Address T ranslation), you ca n only open a
specific port to one computer at a time. For exa mple: If you have 2 web servers on
your network, you cannot open port 80 to both computers. You will need to configure 1
of the web servers to use port 81. Now you ca n open port 80 to the first computer a nd
then open port 81 to the other computer.

136

Frequently Asked Question s (continued)

What is DMZ?

Demilitarized Zone:

In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small
network inserted a s a neutral zone between a company´s private network a nd the
outside public network. It prevents outside users from getting direct access to a server
that has compa ny data. (The term comes from the geogra phic buffer zone that wa s set
up between North Kore a and South Korea f ollowing the UN police a ction in the early
1950s.) A DMZ is a n optional and more se cure a pproach to a firewall a nd effe ctively
acts as a proxy server as well.

In a typical DMZ configuration f or a small company, a separate computer (or host in
network terms) receives requests from users within the private network f or acce ss to
W eb sites or other compa nies a ccessible on the public network. The DMZ host then
initiates session s for these requests on the public network. However , the DMZ host is
not able to initiate a session ba ck into the private network. It ca n only f orward pa ckets
that have already been requested.

Users of the public network outside the company ca n a ccess only the DMZ host. The
DMZ may typically also have the company´s Web pages so these could be served to
the outside world. However, the DMZ provides a ccess to no other compa ny data. In the
event that an outside user penetrated the DMZ hosts security , the W eb pages might
be corrupted but no other company information would be exposed. D-Link, a lea ding

maker of routers, is one compa ny that sells products designed for setting up a DMZ

How do I configure the DMZ Host?

The DMZ fe ature allows you to forward all incoming ports to one computer on the local
network. The DMZ, or Demilitarized Zone, will allow the specif ied computer to be
exposed to the Internet. DMZ is useful when a certain a pplication or ga me does not
work through the firewall. The computer that is configured f or DMZ will be completely
vulnerable on the Internet, so it is suggested that you try opening ports from the
Virtual Server or Firewall settings before using DMZ.

Step 1 Find the IP a ddress of the computer you want to use as the DMZ host.

T o find out how to locate the IP Addre ss of the computer in Windows XP/2000/ME/9x
or Macintosh operating systems ple ase refer to Step 4 of the first question in this
section (Frequently Asked Questions).

How do I use NetMeeting with my DI-824VUP?

Unlike most TCP/IP a pplications, NetMeeting uses DYNAMIC PORTS inste ad of
ST A TIC PORTS. That me ans that e ach NetMeeting connection is somewhat different
than the la st. For insta nce, the HTTP web site a pplication uses port 80. NetMeeting
can use a ny of over 60,000 different ports.

All broadband routers using (only) sta ndard NA T and all internet sharing progra ms like
Microsoft ICS that use (only) standard NA T will NOT work with NetMeeting or other
h.323 software package s.

The solution is to put the router in DMZ.
Note: A few hardware ma nufacturers have ta ken it on themselves to a ctually provide

H.323 compatibility . This is not a n easy task since the router must search ea ch
incoming packet f or sign s that it might be a netmeeting packet. This is a whole lot
more work than a router normally does a nd may actually be a weak point in the
firewall. D-Link is not one of the ma nufacturers.

How do I send or receive a file via iChat when the Mac OSX firewall
is active? - for Macintosh users - Mac OS X 10.2 and later

The following information is from the online M acintosh AppleCare knowledge base:

“iChat cannot send or receive a file when the Mac OS X firewall is active in its default
state. If you have opened the AIM port, you may be able to receive a file but not send
them.

In its default state, the Mac OS X firewall blocks file transfers using iChat or America
Online AIM software. If e ither the sender or receiver ha s turned on the Ma c OS X firewall,
the trans fer may be blocked.

The simplest workaround is to temporarily turn off the firewall in the Sharing preference
pane on both computers. This is required for the sender. However , the receiver may keep
the firewall on if the AIM port is open. To open the AIM port:

Step 1 Choose Apple menu > System Preferences.
Step 2 Choose View > Sharing.
Step 3 Click the Firewall tab.
Step 4 Click New .
Step 5 Choose AOL IM from the Port Na me pop-up menu. The number 5190

should already be filled in for you.

Step 6 Click OK.

If you do not want to turn off the f irewall at the sending computer , a different file sharing
service may be used instead of iChat. The types of file sharing available in Ma c OS X are
outlined in technical document 106461, "Ma c OS X: File Sharing" in the AppleCare Knowl-
edge base online.

Note: If you use a file sharing service when the firewall is turned on, be sure to click the
Firewall tab and sele ct the service you have chosen in the "Allow" list. If you do not do
this, the firewall will also block the file sharing service. “
