Introduce
NetSwitch II-M
|
|
|
|
|
|
As
the threat of information leakage through the internet
has become increased, many security
|
|
-oriented
organizations have traded very warily on the internet
connectivity. For their network
|
|
security,
they started separating their networks, into the external
network, physically and tried
|
|
to
secure their networks.
|
|
To
do so, the network integrators have to use two IP address(for
internal and external) or assign
|
|
an
IP address by NAT(Network Address Translation). They
have to setup IP address and make a
|
|
reboot
the PC system every time. It is really awkward and ineffectual
at the point of the network
|
|
management.
|
|
NetSwitch
ensures the user's convenience to access the internet
and network security as well.
|
|
It
protects the internal resources from any hostile risk
on the internet, and offers the most
|
|
convenient
solution to the internet users at the same time.
|
|
|
Configuration Environment
|
|
|
|
|
In
fact, NetSwitch II-M is a hardware device that separates
networks physically. Unlike the
|
current
security systems, such as a firewall which is the logical
disconnection of two physically
|
connected
networks, it enables you to separate your networks physically,
into the internal
|
network
and the internet. If it is connected with a network,
it is disconnected with the other
|
at
the same time. Because of the physical separation between
networks, there is no way to
|
connect
your internal network resources from outside.
|
If
you operate IPChanger, the network is converted to the
internal or the external network.
|
It
is the simple-to-use solution based on the physical
separation between networks.
|
|
Network Separation
|
|
Some
organizations want to hide their internal network from
the external network, specially
|
the internet.
To do so, their networks must be separated physically
into internal and external
|
network,
through two cable lines such as UTP line. Under this
system environment, they have
|
to
convert IP address manually and make a reboot their
system, in order to access a network
|
to
the other, which is clumsy and costly way to use the networks.
|
NetSwitch
II-M enables them to configure physically separated
networks, only with one
|
network
cable. IPChanger program has a role to convert IP address
automatically. If you want
|
to
access to the internet from internal network, you can
convert IP address automatically and
|
sends
a packet to the NetSwitch II-M to switch the other network.
In this process, it does not
|
require
any reboot your computer system.
|
|
The Structure of NetSwitch II-M
|
|
There
are the 24 UTP ports in front of NetSwitch II-M, connected
with the each PCs through
|
UTP
Lines. At the rear of NetSwitch II-M, there are 2 lines
of 24 ports of UTP Lines. The upper
|
24
ports are designated to the internal network HUB, the
lower 24 ports are to the external
|
network
HUB.
|
It
receives the packets from PCs or Hubs(Internal or External)
and functions repeat. It just
|
forwards
the packets and does not regenerate them. With this
simple procedure, it does not
|
plunge
the network into any trouble or packet delay.
|
NetSwitch
II-M has a LED for each port displayed the network status.
Through the LED display
|
you
can check the network status and diagnose easily any
matters on networks.
|
The
internal and the external port of NetSwitch operates
independently, the problem on each
|
network
does not influence on each other.
|
|
Operation Procedure
|
|
NetSwitch
II-M is located between Internet and Internal Hub. Of
two lines of UTP Ports at the
|
rear
of NetSwitch II-M, the upper ports is for internal network
and lower ports is for the internet.
|
|
|
|
Network Conversion
|
|
-
If your system starts, NetSwitch begins
with the internal network connection.
|
|
-
With operating IPChanger, you can convert
your network into the internet.
|
|
-
To convert the network again, you can repeat
the above procedure.
|
|
|
|
Setting
IP Address & other values
|
|
-
In order to set IP address, generate IPChanger
window by clicking right button of the
|
|
mouse
on IPChanger icon at the system tray.
|
|
-
If IPChanger window appears, set IP address
and other values.
|
|
-
If you close IPChanger window, all new
values will be saved automatically.
|
|
|
|
