【 Weak current College 】 bridge setting method

In today's networks, network connection, in WindowsXP, has integrated connect different segments of the "bridge" functionality, which greatly facilitates the interconnection between small and medium-sized local area network and expand. The following is the construction of the network access to the network bridge setting, write it out to share with you.

I. WindowsXP Bridge configuration needs attention

1, configuration of network bridge server not WindowsXP configure the domain controller, you only need to configure a separate server.

2, installation of two network cards are to guarantee the normal work, inspection method is: open the "control panel → system", find the "hardware" tab and click on "Device Manager", expand "network adapter", see the icon before the two network cards do not have a yellow exclamation mark on the "device status" to "works".

3, WindowsXP bridge supports network communication protocol is TCP/IP, TCP/IP protocol only to communicate with the network forwards packets. However, the host operating system on your network might not be if Windows series, and if it is Linux or other operating system, as long as the proper loading of the TCP/IP Protocol, just like you can with WindowsXP bridge work together.

Second, WindowsXP Bridge configuration method

First step: to bridge two different network interface is assigned a different IP address. We have to the Internet in two segments is 10.0.0.0 in the bridge we can choose a network adapter, it is assigned a fixed IP address of 10.0.0.0 10.0.0.1, as network interfaces. Specific methods are as follows: open the "Control Panel", select "network", select "local area connection" (the first network adapter) in the "Properties", open the "TCP/IP", select "specify an IP address of 10.0.0.1," and fill in the subnet mask is 255.0.0.0, gateway to 10.0.0.1. Similarly, we can give the "local area connection 2" (the second network card) to specify the IP address of 192.168.0.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, gateway to 192.168.0.1.

Step 2: boot WindowsXP bridge. In the "local area connection" (a network), right-click the page, find the "new bridge (CreateBridge)" click, click, WindowsXP appears a "bridge (NetworkBridge) icon. But since you have only one network interface exist on bridges, the bridge also temporarily unable to work (bridge icon has a red x). We in the "local area connection 2" (the second network adapter) is also a "new bridge (CreateBridge)" after the operation, you can see the bridge of the icon is changed. In bridges, right-click its icon and choose "Properties", you can check just to join this network interfaces of various attributes, such as network adapter names, each bound IP addresses, etc.

Step three: the bridge was started, the 10.0.0.0 network segments within the host gateway are set to 10.0.0.1, the 192.168.0.0 network segments within the host gateway are set to 192.168.0.1. We choose within the 10.0.0.0 network segments of a computer, such as 10.0.0.2, at the command line, type "ping192.168.0.2", such as to receive "Replyfrom192.168.0.2 ..." response to indicate the network bridge is working correctly, two network segments are connected and can cross put file.
