DFL-900/1500 User Manual Chapter 1

Quick Start

Here we would like to alter the original IP Sharer with the DFL-900/1500 like

Figure 1-4. If we hope to have DFL-900/1500 to

replace the IP Sharer, we just need to simply execute the following five steps as

Figure 1-5 showed. By these steps, we hope to

build an image to tell you how to let DFL-900/1500 work basically.

Figure 1-5 Five steps to configure DFL-900/1500

As the

Figure 1-5 illustrated, with the five-step configurations, DFL-900/1500 will have the same functions with the original IP

Sharer. Please see the following description of the five-step configurations.

Step 1. Setup:

Install three physical lines inclusive of the power cord, outbound link (connected WAN1 port) and inbound direction

(connected LAN1 port). For the details, please refer section

1.5.

Continually, we will connect to the web GUI of DFL-900/1500. So you must make sure that you have a PC which is

located in the same subnet with DFL-900/1500 before this step. Note: The default LAN1 port is (192.168.1.254 /

255.255.255.0). Refer to

Table 1-3 for the default settings and section 1.7 for more information.

Step 2. LAN:

Configure the LAN1 port of DFL-900/1500. You can refer to section

1.6 for the default network configurations of

DFL-900/1500. Note: If you were connected from LAN1 port and changed the LAN1 IP address settings of

DFL-900/1500. The network will be disconnected since the IP address is different between your pc and DFL-900/1500

LAN1 port.

Step 3. WAN:

Configure the WAN1 port of DFL-900/1500. You can refer to section

1.6 for the default network configurations of

DFL-900/1500.

Step 4. NAT:

Configure the connection of LAN to WAN direction. It will make all the client pc access the internet through

DFL-900/1500. For more information, please refer to section

1.8.1.
