More about connecting client computers

The

“Quick start procedure” on page 22

explains the basics

of connecting and configuring client computers for the local
network if you have already set it up.

You can connect clients to the Magnia SG30 and configure
them quickly and easily using the Magnia SG30 "Client
Setup- and Documentation CD". This is the recommended
method of setting up client computers for your private
network.

The "Client Setup- and Documentation CD" will modify your
client computer’s network configuration to match that of the
Magnia SG30. If your client computer is already configured
for use with another network (such as a corporate LAN), you
may wish to manually configure your client for Magnia SG30
access.

If you need to set up client computers without using the
"Client Setup- and Documentation CD", see

“Manually

Configuring Clients for the Magnia SG30” on page 255

. To

configure a Macintosh, see

“Configuring a Macintosh as a

Client” on page 285

.

Dial-in access

The Magnia SG30 has an optional modem or an ISDN card
that allow users to log in to the network from remote
locations (such as their homes) over a phone line. If you
would like to allow users to connect via modem or ISDN, you
must first connect the Magnia SG30 to a working phone line.

1

Connect a telephone cable from the modem (or ISDN)
port to the telephone jack.

2

At the remote location, connect the computer to the
telephone or ISDN line.
