Hi all,
I want to access my server using Remote web workplace. Now my ISP assigns
dynamic IP, which changes always . Somebody advice me to get a static IP
Now the server has two lan cards . one is connect to the ADSL modem router
and another to the server machine . so if i buy a stastic ip , do i have to
give that IP to the ADSL modem or do i have to give it to the local server
machine . which is the secure way of doing .
if the static ip is given to the ADsl modem router , when i access the
machine from internet it will connect only to my broad band router , so how
can i access my machine from there
My knowledge in networking is intermediate , so please can anybody help me
here or can you just give me some idea regarding setting lan cards and IP
address in SBS server
Thanks
George

Hi George,
You can always assign a computer (or in this case your server) a
static IP address without any cost. However, in order to get your IP
address to use RWW you need to get it from your ISP for your internet
connection - i.e. you will have a static IP on your ADSL modem. From
there, you will have to port forward from your router to your SBS box,
(ports 4125 and 443 for RWW) and assign your SBS box a static IP off
your modem. From there you should configure IIS for SSL etc etc and
you should get it up and running. Plus - remember to get a domain or
subdomain to forward to your IP address or it wont work!
Good luck mate

Your IP address may be different each time your modem acquires an IP address
but if you leave your modem on and connected then this should be quite
infrequent. The IP address assigned to me at home changes only about once a
year, but that's because I leave my equipment on. That said, I wouldn't rely
on it not changing, so I would suggest either:
1. getting a static ip from your ISP. They'll either charge you for this or
depending on the ISP might not even be able to give you one.
2. use a service like no-ip.org. You run a small application on your box and
it registers with their servers each time your ip address changes. For any
service you need (like RWW) you simply use the dns name that no-ip give you.
Works a treat. Its also free if volumes of requests are low. There are other
dynamic-dns providers, but I've never had any problems with no-ip.
Hope this helps.

I had the same circumstances so I had my ISP assign a static IP, $10/
month. I found it easier to use a bridged modem and do all the routing
from the server itself. Have had no problems so far.

Which is authenticating with your provider? If you put your username and
password into the modem, then that's what will have the IP. If your
server logs in and the modem is in bridge mode, then the server's NIC
uses the static address.

You can use VPN which will require some configuration in your router.

If you can't get a Static IP.
Most routers support DYNDS.COM
So you can get yourname.dyndns.org and have your router auto update it.
Go to http://www.dyndns.com sign up for a subdomain, set up your router with
the login/password to auto update it.
and use yourname.dyndns.org for your Web Cert etc.
