i ve searched the whole web and this forum for my questions but im getting no answers. I hope somebody can help me.
WHAT I HAVE
1. I have a claxan server appliance(router) that can connect via pppoE to my adsl provider.
2. I have asl v5 on a celeron 600 with 40gb hd, 256ram and two network interfaces
3. I have a switch with 3 clients plugged in.
AT THE MOMENT
My router is plugged into my adsl modem and the switch. MY clients can surf the internet with the router but have no protection because this router is crap.
WHAT I WANT
1. i want to have the comfort of a router so that i can simply press one button on it to establish a connection or to refuse the connection
2. I want the security of asl and all the features of it like proxy, dhcp and so on.
3.Conclusion: adsl-modem-->router-->ASLV5-->Switch-->Clients(win2k).
Please don´t tell me that asl has the feature built in to establish a pppoE connection. I dont want it to act like that.
MY TRYOUTS/PROBLEMS
my connection-plan:
adsl-modem-->router(192.168.0.1/24)-->eth1(external 192.168.0.2/24) on ASL-->eth0(internal 192.168.0.200/24)-->switch-->clients
i thought i could give the eth1 a ip (192.168.0.2) and define it as a ethernet interface in network-->interfaces and give it the gateway 192.168.0.1
and the eth0 device gets a 192.168.0.200 so i can use webadmin.
I dont know if this is ok, because everytime i want to add the new eth1 device the webadmin works 1 minute and then crashes! I cant connect to the webadmin anymore and i have to go to the console and type "ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.2 down" to get a connection again. this sucks really hard because i think this is the only way to make it work like i want it to. I even tryed to establish a connection without router and asl proxy and pppoE connection and this just worked fine.
does anyone has a clue how it could work WITH router and asl???
I would really really appreaciate any help because im stuck on these issues for several weeks now.
