Hi If you try and telnet into the modem you should be able to give it the following command Plug the Wan port to the ISA external NIc Telnet modem ip Defserver=x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is the ip appress of the ISA external interface. Connect the clients to the ISA internal NIC I work fine with an alcatel ADSL modem using these settings. The Defserver command just passes all traffic to the specified ip withour any action.

The ADSL router has a WAN port and 4 LAN ports. It seems once ISA plug into a LAN port of ADSL router, the ISA machine can no longer access Internet, but it works fine when the ADSL modem directly plug into the ISA machine. Any other machines plug into the LAN ports (without ISA installed) can access Internet no problem at all. Do we need to configure ISA for allowing traffic to relay thru the ADSL router? We have been playing around for a few days now, but still have no luck to make it to work. Please shed me some lights on this issue, any information is greatly appreciate.. ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: administrator@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub')
