No! Not my hot sauce! :)) Agreed. No use for a WAN port on a WAP only device ____________________________________________ TOM SHINDER | Sr. Consultant/Technical Writer 206.443.1117 | SHINDER@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 5701 Sixth Avenue South | Seattle, WA 98108 PROWESS | WWW.PROWESSCORP.COM <http://www.prowesscorp.com/> ____________________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Harrison Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 3:45 PM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: Need help - Configuring Wireless Network with ISA Server 2006 Nothing says you have to use it at all.

I have been researching all day today and it looks like I don't have to change my wireless router at all. One thing I had wanted to ask you guys was, where should the WAN port on the Netgear be connected to? I thought that port should be connected to the the 3rd NIC inside the ISA server 2006.

Use any port except the uplink port and your "router" problems should be behind you.

I'll take my time later today and listen to your webcast and see where I am doing this whole configuration wrong. At first I thought this whole configuration will be easy after reading some articles and checking out forums about people who have set it up before. It's been a week since I started doing this wireless and ISA server configuration and I haven't been successful yet. Now it looks like I should have done my research about the right WAP to use to connect it to ISA server. I spent $140 on this Netgear WAP and just be'cos I can't configure it in WAP only mode, I won't be able to move forward to finish my configuration. Now, I have to come up with some money to buy the DLink WAP.

The DMZ interface on the firewall should have a static IP address. Make sure the WAP is configured in WAP only mode -- not router mode.

It's just that when I do that and try to use the software that came with the WAP to configure it, it tries to change the static IP address assigned to the NIC the WAP is connected to, to a dynamic IP.

Before I go ahead and let you know my configuration problems, I just want to point out that I have already read Tom Shinder's articles: http://www.isaserver.org/articles/2004wirelessdmzpart2.html http://isaserver.org/tutorials/2004wirelessdmzpart1.html Now my problem: I have assigned 3 NICs to the ISA server. The NIC assigned to the External network has no IP address since this NIC is connected to my Verizon box which gets IP dynamically from Verizon. The 2nd NIC assigned to the Internal network has an IP 192.168.5.1, 255.255.255.0 and with no default gateway. My ISA server has been configured as a DNS and a DHCP server. This configuration has been working out fine since I configured this network more than a year and a half ago. Two Laptops with wireless built-in cards have been added to my network so I decided to purchase a wireless access point and add it to the ISA server. Now the 3rd NIC which is connected to the Netgear Access Point has an IP address of 192.168.1.5. The Access Point IP address is 192.168.1.1. I have configured the access point not to issue an IP to the client as a DHCP server. The Default Internal network and the Default External network have been connected to the Wireless network which I have named WLAN-DMZ. I have also created "One Network Rule that defines a NAT route relationship between the DMZ and the Default External Network and one Network Rule that defines a NAT route relationship between the Default Internal Network and the DMZ " as Tom mentioned in his article part 2 above. DNS to DMZ interface - configured. HTTP DMZ to Internet - configured How will the Laptops get and an IP address from the ISA server? My wireless connection seem not to be communicating at all with my ISA server. When I try to configure the access point with the software that came with it, it always tries to make the access point a DHCP server even though I have manually configured it not to assign IP addresses to wireless clients. Any thing am missing out here? Thanks for all of your help. TD
