Can someone clarify for me how I should be hooking up my ASDL to my WIN2K3 Network. I have DLink Switch which all computers connect to. My ASDL modem takes one port, my WIN2K3 server takes another, and all other computers take their own ports too. Should I be connecting the ASDL directly to the WIN2K3 machine for security purposes? or is it ok to have the ASDL modem on a random port on the Dlink Switch? What stops other computers from accessing the ADSL modem since it is plugged directly into the switch?? Can someone clarify how the internet should be connected proplery with a WIN2K3 network?? How do I restrict access to certain cmoputers on the network??
thanks…
