Right-click the network connection where you want to configure inbound access control, and then select Properties. When you select this check box, you enable filtering for all adaptors. However, filter configuration must be completed on each adaptor. This feature doesn't affect outbound traffic or TCP response ports that are created to accept responses from outbound requests.

Verify that Days is 8 and click Next. The lease duration is how long clients should keep their IP addresses before having to renew them. There are a few considerations at this point. If a short lease duration is configured, clients will be renewing their IP addresses more frequently. The result will be additional network traffic and additional strain on the DHCP server. On the other hand if a long lease duration is configured, IP addresses previously obtained by decommissioned clients would remain leased and unavailable to future clients until the leases either expire or are manually deleted.
Additionally if network changes occur, such as the implementation of a new DNS server, those clients would not receive those updates until their leases expire or the computers are restarted. In an environment where computers are often moved and replaced, such as a wireless network, you would want to specify a short duration since a new wireless client could roam within range at any time.
These are the other settings that help clients communicate on the network. Specify the router IP address. The first option we can configure is the IP address for the subnet's router for which this scope is providing IP addresses. Keep in mind that this IP address must be in the same network as the IP addresses in the range that we created earlier. Configure domain name and DNS servers.
Then enter When finished, click Next. If you had a DNS infrastructure in place, you could have simply typed in the fully qualified domain name of the DNS server and clicked Resolve. The DNS servers will be used by clients primarily for name resolution, but also for other purposes that are beyond the scope of this article. Configure WINS servers. Thanks in advance, Phil.

Most of the downtime's are caused because of SysAdmin's curiosity! Monday, February 27, AM. Thanks for all the answers, I'm afraid I'm no nearer Hi Phil, Thanks for posting here. Tuesday, February 28, AM. Hi Phil, Please feel free to let us know if the information was helpful to you.
Wednesday, February 29, AM. The problem is not necessarily in the network card. It could be caused by misconfiguration of the conflicting adapter. This is the same Help and Support Center that is available from the Start menu. See Chapter 14 for network-oriented troubleshooting advice. Network adapters do not need any manual configuration for most systems.
Most of the time, Windows Server correctly identifies the adapter and installs a properly configured driver for the adapter. The Configure button is useful but rarely needed. Refer back to Figure The window in the middle of the properties dialog shown in Figure lists the network components used for the network connection.
Three network components are listed:. All three of these are described in Chapter 3. This is the protocol we will be manually configuring in this chapter. Directly under the list of network components are three buttons: Install, Uninstall, and Properties. Click the Install button to install a network component.
Three component types are offered:. A client component is the client side of some network service. The Client for Microsoft Networks component described above is one example. A service component is the server side of a network service. A protocol component is a network communications protocol.
Of course, the client and service components also contain protocol elements, so the distinction is somewhat arbitrary. By default, the Select Network Protocol window offers the following five protocol component selections:.
This is the IPv6 protocol described in Chapter 2. The Uninstall button removes an unneeded network component. To remove a component, simply highlight the component name in the list box and click Uninstall. You will be asked to verify the removal. Click Yes and the network component is removed. The Properties button is used to configure a protocol.
Protocol configuration is the principal topic of this chapter. This tab is used to manually define the basic configuration or to select automatic configuration from the DHCP server. DHCP is a key component of a manageable, reliable, and efficient network. Despite the label on this option button, it does much more than just obtain the IP address automatically. Of course, as the administrator of the network it is your responsibility to set up the DHCP server as described in Chapter 5.
But your work relieves end users of configuration responsibilities and reduces the number of user configuration errors that you have to fix. The configuration steps described in the next section are not needed for the majority of systems on a network that uses DHCP. Below are the manual configuration fields on the IP address portion of the General tab:. Enter a valid IP address for this computer, using dotted decimal format. This is a single address from your address range.
Enter the appropriate subnet mask, again using dotted decimal format. By default, this field will use the natural mask for the address entered above. If you subnet, you should place your subnet mask here. If you do not subnet, use the prefix-length assigned with the address block to determine the mask.
Chapter 2 covers subnets and address masks. Enter the IP address for the default router in dotted decimal format. Chapter 2 provides background on routing and the use of default gateways, and there is more on routing and gateways later in this chapter.
Of course, before manually entering data into any of these fields you must know exactly what you are going to enter. The network administrator is responsible for making and communicating decisions about overall network configuration. If you are creating a new network, you will have to make some basic decisions.
One of these decisions is how to choose a network number for your new network, which is the topic of the next section. If you already have IP addresses for your network, you can skip this section. First, you must decide how many hosts on a new network will be fully accessible from the Internet. Many new networks attach to the Internet indirectly so that access into the new network from other Internet networks is limited.
Users on the new network can access remote Internet hosts but remote users cannot directly access all of the hosts on the indirectly connected network. Because the hosts on this network are not accessible to users in the outside world, they do not require public IP addresses.
Only the subset of systems exposed to the outside world requires public IP addresses. Therefore, the network administrator of this network can select a network address from RFC , Address Allocation for Private Internets. The private network numbers are The pros and cons of using a network address from RFC are covered in Chapter 2 , where private network numbers are discussed in detail.
But, in general, if you can use a private network number, you should. Some organizations choose to give every device on the network an address that will make that device fully accessible from the Internet.
A network that wants to be fully accessible from all sites on the Internet must obtain a public network address to allow outside users direct access into the systems on your network.
An official address is needed for every system on the network that is directly accessible to remote Internet hosts. Every network that communicates with the Internet, even those that use NAT, has at least one public address, although that address may be assigned to the NAT box. To make many or all of the systems on your network accessible, you need a block of addresses.
The first step toward obtaining a block of addresses is to determine how many addresses you need. A small- to medium-sized organization focused on connecting itself to the Internet. What categorizes this organizational type is that it wants to use the Internet while limiting the number of systems it makes available to remote users.
From the point of view of the Internet, all Internet end-user organizations appear small because they use only a limited number of official addresses. A medium- to large-sized organization that distributes official addresses to systems throughout its network. This type of organization tends to have a distributed management under which divisions within the overall organization are allowed to make systems remotely accessible. High-volume end-user organizations usually satisfy their address requirements through their ISP or a Local Internet Registry.
If the organization needs more than 8, addresses, it may go directly to a Regional Internet Registry. While in reality a high-volume end-user organization may not be any larger than an Internet end-user organization, it appears to be larger from the point of view of the Internet because it exposes more systems to the Internet.
An organization that provides Internet connection services to other organizations and provides those organizations with official addresses. Even an ISP connects to the Internet in some way. The upstream provider assigns addresses to the ISP. An organization that provides addresses to ISPs.
In effect a Local Internet Registry is an organization that provides addresses to other organizations that provide addresses. RFC lists four organizational types in order to be thorough. Most organizations are either Internet end users or high-volume end users. In all likelihood, your organization is one of these, and you will obtain all of your addresses from your ISP.
Your ISP has been delegated authority over a group of network addresses and should be able to assign you a network number. Ask your local ISP whom it receives service from and ask that organization for an address. If all else fails, you may be forced to go directly to an Internet registry. If you are forced to take your request to a registry, you will need to take certain steps before you make the application.
You need to prepare a detailed network topology. The topology must include a diagram that shows the physical layout of your network and highlights its connections to the Internet. You should include network engineering plans that, in addition to diagramming the topology, describe:. Your routing plans, including the protocols you will use and any constraints that forced your routing decisions.
Your subnetting plans, including the mask you will use, and the number of networks and hosts you will have connected during the next year. The biggest challenge is accurately predicting future requirements for addresses. If you have previously been assigned an address block, you may be required to provide a history of how that address block was used. Even if it is not requested by the Internet registry, a history can be a helpful tool for your own planning.
Additionally, you will be asked to prepare a network deployment plan. This plan typically shows the number of hosts you currently have that need official addresses and the number you expect to have in six months, one year and two years. One factor used to determine how much address space is needed is the expected utilization rate.
The expected utilization rate is the number of hosts assigned official addresses divided by the total number of hosts possible for the network. The deployment plans must show the number of hosts that will be assigned addresses over a two-year period.
The total number of possible hosts can be estimated from the total number of employees in your organization and the number of systems that have been traditionally deployed per employee. Clearly you need to have a global knowledge of your organization and its needs before applying for an official address assignment.
