Accessing AOL
To access AOL (America On Line) through The Load Balancer, the AOL for Windows software must
be configured to use TCP/IP network access, rather than a dial-up connection. The configuration
process is as follows:
• Start
the AOL for Windows communication software. Ensure that it is Version 2.5, 3.0 or later.
This procedure will not work with earlier versions.
• Click
the Setup button.
• Select
Create Location, and change the location name from "New Locality" to "Load Balancer".
• Click
Edit Location. Select TCP/IP for the Network field. (Leave the Phone Number blank.)
• Click
Save, then OK.
Configuration is now complete.
• Before clicking "Sign On", always ensure that you are using the "Load Balancer" location.
Macintosh Clients
From your Macintosh, you can access the Internet via The Load Balancer. The procedure is as
follows.
1. Open the TCP/IP Control Panel.
2. Select Ethernet from the Connect via pop-up menu.
3. Select Using DHCP Server from the Configure pop-up menu. The DHCP Client ID field can be left
blank.
4. Close the TCP/IP panel, saving your settings.
Note:
If using manually assigned IP addresses instead of DHCP, the required changes are:
• Set
the Router Address field to The Load Balancer’s IP Address.
• Ensure
your DNS settings are correct.
Linux Clients
To access the Internet via The Load Balancer, it is only necessary to set The Load Balancer as the
"Gateway", and ensure your Name Server settings are correct.
Ensure you are logged in as "root" before attempting any changes.
Fixed IP Address
By default, most Unix installations use a fixed IP Address. If you wish to continue using a fixed IP
Address, make the following changes to your configuration.
