                        Introduction    The D-Link Express EtherNetwork VDI-604 is a 4-port Ethernet  Broadband Router. The D-Link VDI-604 enables users to quickly and  easily share a high speed Internet connection. The D-Link VDI-604 also  incorporates many advanced features, traditionally found in more  expensive routers.       The VDI-604 is compatible with most popular operating systems, including  Macintosh, Linux and Windows, and can be integrated into an existing  network.  This Manual is designed to help you co

                        Technology Introduction  Introduction to Broadband Router Technology  A router is a device that forwards data packets from a source to a  destination. Routers forward data packets using IP addresses and not a  MAC address. A router will forward data from the Internet to a particular  computer on your LAN.   The information that makes up the Internet gets moved around using  routers. When you click on a link on a web page, you send a request to a  server to show you the next page.

                        Introduction to Local Area Networking  Local Area Networking (LAN) is the term used when connecting several  computers together over a small area such as a building or group of  buildings. LAN’s can be connected over large areas. A collection of LAN’s  connected over a large area is called a Wide Area Network (WAN).   A LAN consists of multiple computers connected to each other. There are  many types of media that can connect computers together. The most  common media is CAT5 cable (UTP or STP t

You will need to enter in the IP address, subnet mask, gateway  address, and DNS address(es) provided to you by your ISP. Each IP  address entered in the fields must be in the appropriate IP form, which are  four IP octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not accept the  IP address if it is not in this format.  IP Address: Public IP address provided by your ISP.  Sub

Enter a Maximum Idle Time (in  minutes) to define a maximum period of time for which the Internet  connection is maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for  longer than the defined Maximum Idle Time, then the connection will be  dropped. Either set this to zero or enable Auto-reconnect to disable this  feature.

The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP  address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your  computers to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain  an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will  automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the VDI-604.  The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an

                        ADVANCED > VIRTUAL SERVER    The VDI-604 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users  accessing Web or FTP services via the public IP address can be  automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN network.   The VDI-604 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect  your LAN network so all computers networked with the VDI-604 are  invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN  computers accessible from the Internet by enabling Virtu
