Hi all,

I am setting up a network for my company using the following hardware/software and would appreciate any advice you might be able to offer!

1. Server w/ MS SBS 2003
2. Cisco 877 Router (10.10.10.1)
3. 2 x D-Link DWL2100AP wireless access points

Currently, the server is not installed and all users (laptops) connect wirelessly to the internet via the D-Link wireless access points, which are plugged into two of the lan connections on the Cisco router. The router currently assigns IPs in the range 10.10.10.10 - 10.10.10.254.

I am trying what 'network plan' to use, so have the following questions:

1. How should I configure the Router to take into account a new setup? Would you have 2 vlans?
2. Should I use windows SBS firewall also?
3. Should I use the router's DHCP server or SBS's?
4. What settings would I use for the server's TCP/IP info (e.g. DNS, Gateway etc)

If you know any websites detailing basic network designs that would also be very useful!!


Thank you all in advance,

Regards,

Rob
