VaKo Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Its possible, you just need to get a business package not a home package. Bit more pricey than regular home ADSL but having static external IP's is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if i get two external IP and wants to redirect them to my webserver at home... i will just do a Port Translation on the firewall... so IP: 80.80.80.80 .. port 80 ... redirected to 192.168.1.2 and IP: 90.90.90.90 port 80 .... redirected to 192.168.1.2 i use IPCOP... can it host more than one ip?

VaKo Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Its good, but if your after multiple external static IP addresses you might be after something a bit more robust. For instance being able to connect to server1.domain.com, server2.domain.com etc, something dynDNS won't let you do. Its possible, you just need to get a business package not a home package.

There are other options: http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-...11-1053789.html. Depends on what you want to do though. And how many machines you want to connect.

I always though, one network card, one IP address so in case you've got multiple address, which IP the network card that is connected to the DSL box gets? all of them... sorry I am just confused... this is new for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 dydns? That's multiple domain names that resolve to his single IP. He wants multiple IPs that lead to his machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you used a switch and not a router only one machine could get an IP. If you had a connection with 3 static IP's, you could use a switch and connect 3 machines to the internet at the same time. So, if your router allowed it, you could have 2 machines with public IP's, and a normal NAT'd public IP with a DHCP server. Or, you could assign 2 IP's to the card, and a have a public IP and a private IP, and then simply bind services to the IP you need it on. But this is paper work to me, I've never done it in practice. I suspect PAT will go very bad, very quickly if your not careful with your traffic routing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeoneE1se Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 on paper: as long as you bind your server to the correct IP you shouldn't need to worry too too much. But if you have only one server, get another card and run linux, because windows doesn't like more then 1 connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Windows is fine with multiple IP's and multiple connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeoneE1se Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 In my XP exp. I've had nothing but problems with more then one connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Thumb Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 I dont know if anyone has mentioned this but you can also get fake IPs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooper Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Well, on *NIX you can clone your network adapter. You end up with eth0:0, eth0:1 eth0:2 and so on, and can assign IPs to each the same way you would a normal adapter. I use this for my ADSL router. It's in bridging mode, so I get my internet IP address on my own machine's network adapter. To still have access to the internal web interface of the router I cloned that network card to also be aware of the internal network that the router is on. An ifconfig shows it like so: eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:75:85:FD:B5 inet addr:123.45.67.89 Bcast:123.45.67.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:859536710 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:5 frame:0 TX packets:941606426 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:636938715 (607.4 MiB) TX bytes:3997597405 (3.7 GiB) Interrupt:15 Base address:0xe000 eth1:0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:75:85:FD:B5 inet addr:172.19.3.2 Bcast:172.19.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Interrupt:15 Base address:0xe000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
