IS-IT--Management
I had a VPN with 24 remote locations and 1 home office up and running. The problem with it was that it kept dropping some of the connections for some reason or another. I made it a point to use the same OS for all the clients which is XP professional and 2000 server for the Server. I had one Linksys BEFVP41 router and a westele modem that I had bridge and I use my Linksys to authenticate.
Well since we kept dropping clients for no reason so it seemed. We decided to get some more bandwidth. With it came a pool of eight static IPs instead of the one that we initially had. The was cool extra static they might come in hand but..... We couldn't get on to the internet nor use our static IPs over our Broadband DSL until we first got another router that would handle multiple static IPs.
Now that fun begins. I'm now getting error 733 TCP/IP in not configured correctly is what it boils down to but it is enabled and up and running says 2K server.
I had got to close the ports on the first router and open only port 1723 cause I am using PPTP .... but I need to find a way to do this without disturbing the IP range and scheme of the LAN if possible.
Help me with new topology. cause I have been told by ISP that mind may not work which I presented to them so far. Though they haven't given any clear reasons why they want work. mesh, ring, star, what...... Also can I use two routers ... i.e. the Linksys and the Netopia to solve my problems.
