This Design is based purely on the information you provided on your post. THe following is a list of unknowns:
1. Do you use DNS internally? do you plan to?
2. What is your internal network's IP Structure?
3. What are your current DHCP options settings(GW, scope,WINS)
For me to come up with this design for you, I made the following assumptions. In the case of the IP
network I chose, please change it so it applies to your network.
1. You are NOT using internal DNS
2. Internal IP network: 192.168.25.0/24
3. NO WINS on 2k server
4. NO AD on your network
5. NO DOMAIN
OK, let's get down to it.
1. You need to assign a static IP to the LAN interface of FM 114 Router( 192.168.25.1 )
2. Reconfigure your 2k server's IP settings to point to the router as its default GW and DNS server
3. Reconfigure your DHCP settings to give out ip of router to clients as default GW and DNS.
4. Release and renew lease from client machines
IP Settings from any client machine should be as follows:
IP: 192.168.25.[100-115]
SM: 255.255.255.0
GW: 192.168.25.1
DNS: 192.168.25.1
DHCP: 192.168.25.5
NOTE:
I am not sure how you setup the firewall in the FM114 unit. But understand that just because you can't
ping hosts OUTSIDE of your network, it doesn't mean you don't have connectivity. Your firewall may be
set to drop ICMP packets. So, how to test this quickly?
Issue ping from an internal host to a host outside using the FQDM( host.domain.com ), if the name gets
resolved( but is still timed-out ) you are ON!!!! Frankly, just open up a browser, but I tend to like
the command line a lot.
Hope this info helps. If you have more questions, let me know.
Thanks
