LAN-to-LAN IP Connection
Troubleshooting


This configuration note explains how to set up two Prestige routers for a LAN-to-LAN connection. Once the connection is established, the workstations on both LANs will be able to perform any TCP/IP applications (e.g., FTP, Telnet, etc.). There will be three items that you need to set up.  These are workstation and the two Prestige routers.

To set up the workstations, you will need to set the following parameters:
 

The procedure for configuring these parameters for the workstations may differ depending on the type of TCP/IP networking software you are using on your workstations. If you are unfamiliar with how to set these parameters, you can refer to the technical notes corresponding to your software.

For Windows 9x, please go to 'Win9x>Control Panel>Network>TCP/IP-Network Adapter' for finishing the above settings.


Before configuring the two remote nodes for this application, you need to complete the following settings first in each Prestige.
