Thread: Need help setting up a Linux router/firewall/server - how do I setup NIC's?
my current setup modem address of 192.168.254.254, linksys router wan ip (dhcp) of 192.168.254.1 , internal lan ip 192.168.1.1. set linux box same ip's if possible. computers on network using dhcp able use linux router dns, gateway, etc.
question this. can leave wan nic on linux router dhcp since linksys set to? using eth0 nic.
should set lan nic static? think have can point rest of computers static ip set. if set static entries need set? have seen places need 3 entries (address, netmask, gateway) or (address, network, netmask, broadcast, gateway). don't know need put in interfaces file.
also, need setup kind of bridge bridge 2 network cards or taken care of other software?
oh, have webmin, lamp , ehcp installed on system , think setup dhcp, bind, bind dns, , lot of other packages - think installed , ready go.
do these nic addesses?
