Internet sharing: core steps for building a dormitory Network

Internet sharing: the Core step for building a dormitory network. Many questions about the configuration of the dormitory network involve the establishment of the dormitory network, therefore, you must first understand the basic knowledge of Internet sharing before preparing for the establishment of a dormitory network in the future.

Dormitory Network: Internet sharing

The establishment of shared Internet access through the dormitory network often refers to the setting of proxy server software. The author introduces a simple and easy-to-use wingate software with comprehensive functions. It is a shared software and can be used for 30 days without registration. It can be downloaded to the latest version at http://www.wenchuan.com/htm/wingate.htm. now, it is 5.5 MB. For wingate installation, I installed wingate on pc01 and the IP address is 192.168.0.1.

Download the winmtr software, decompress it, and double-click the. exe file to install and draw. Select the configure this machine as a igate server option to install wingate in server mode. Figure 601.jpg)

Set up dormitory Network: wks parameter settings

Step 1: Modify the hosts file. Generally, there is a hosts. sam file in the windows directory. In the initial state, the system does not have a hosts file. You can rename hosts. sam or copy it to get this file. Open hosts with notepad, add 192.168.0.1 pc01 to the last line, and save the disk and exit. Note that 192.168.0.1 and PC01 are the IP addresses and names of the computers that install the wingate agent software.

Step 2: Set DNS. Enable DNS. Enter the host name as the host name. If the domain name is left blank, enter the domain name as the proxy server host in the DNS server search sequence. The domain name is 192.168.0.1 or the IP address of the local ISP Server, for example, it is 202.103.96.111 in Changsha. Press add. Figure 605.jpg)

Step 3: test whether the network is connected in the workstation. Test the Intranet first: Enter the ms-dos window, and ping pc01 to test whether the wingate configuration is correct. Ping the two return values above the www.cn-lan.com, the following shows that the network is normal.
◆ Pinging fengyun [192.168.0.103] with 32 bytes of data:
◆ Reply from 192.168.0.103: bytes = 32 time <10 ms TTL = 128 ......
◆ If the returned value is request times out, check whether the network and wingate configurations are correct.

Workstation settings for Application Software

Browser settings: use IE as an example. Start Internet Explorer, and use the tool-internet--local network settings image 607.jpg). Click "use proxy server", enter 192.168.0.1 in the address bar, and the port number is 80.

OICQ settings: as long as you click to use the proxy socket5 firewall and enter the firewall address 192.168.0.1 and the port number 8000, you can easily access the internet, chat with your friends or communicate with technical questions through OICQ. (Fig 608.jpg)

Email receiving settings: Taking foxmail as an example, outlook is similar. Start foxmail, this account-properties-mail server, fill in 192.168.0.1 in both the mail sending server and the mail receiving server, fill in the full name of your mailbox for the POP3 mail account, and change @ #. If my mailbox is a webmaster@cn-lan.com, enter webmaster # cn-lan.com at pop3 mailbox.

You can use the wingate proxy to access the Internet. If you think that you need to set up each application software on the workstation, which is too troublesome, I recommend the sygate software to you. It is a gateway software, after installation on the server, the workstation only needs to set the gateway and DNS, and other application software does not need to be set, which is easy to use. There are very detailed tutorials on the www.cn-lan.com website.
