== Wireless Network ==

 . The wireless network is part of the Martian Network. The Martian ethernet is bridged to wireless via a Linksys WRT600N wireless router with IP address https://192.168.113.220. Note that the wireless access point is only bridging the wired and wireless networks--it does not do NAT. To access the outside world, your network settings should be the same as given above for the Martian network.

 . You can configure the router by accessing its IP address with a web browser.
 . The password for configuring the wireless AP is {{{ll_admin}}}.

 . The manual for the router is here: [[attachment:WRT600N_Manual.pdf]]

 . Here are several screen shots of the configuration screens: [[attachment:screen1.pdf]] [[attachment:screen2.pdf]] [[attachment:screen3.pdf]] [[attachment:screen4.pdf]]

 . Here is attached the router's configuration file as of June 7, 2011. The router can reload this file if it gets lost or corrupted. [[attachment:MartianRouter.bin]]

 . Basically, you don't care about the internet setup because you don't connect anything to the WAN port. The physical connection to the router is just one martian LAN cable to one of the LAN ports.

 . Security is enforced by the MAC address filtering. Only registered machines can connect to the wireless network. Whenever you reset the router (not power cycle), you should register all the lab laptops to the router.

 . The SSID of the martian wireless network is {{{40MARS}}}.


== Mount linux1 ==
 . If you want to mount ''linux1'' on a computer in order to share data on Martian network, add the following line on the file {{{/etc/fstab}}}
 . {{{
linux1:/home/cds /cvs/cds nfs rw,bg,soft 0 0
}}}
 . Then make the directory where the ''linux1'' will be mounted on
 . {{{ mkdir /cvs && mkdir /cvs/cds
}}}
 . Then reboot the computer. If it's mounted correctly you will find some directories under {{{/cvs/cds/}}}

== Firewalling by Router:WRT310N ==
 . A firewall is used for network isolation between a new CDS computer and the existing CDS system. It nicely allows to avoid a network conflict. For this purpose, a network router: ''LINKSYS WRT310N'' has been employed.

LIGO Caltech network

  • IP addresses on this network are in the form 131.215.114.XXX and 131.215.115.XXX .

  • The wireless router connected to the caltech net has SSID "40m" (2GHz), "40m_5G1" and "40m_5G2" (5GHz). The router is nominally located on the top of the computer rack in the office area.

Martian Wireless Network

Wifi router

On Jan 6th, 2016, the Martian wifi router was replaced with a Netgear R6400. Link to the corresponding ELOG entry

The router supports a 2 GHz network (11g) named "40MARS" and a 5 GHz network (11ac) "40MARS_5G". These two SSIDs are hidden.

The martian IP address of this unit is 192.168.113.232.

Wireless Bridge for GPIB instruments

On Jan 8th, 2016, a new wireless bridge (NETGEAR EX3700) for GPIB instruments was installed.

Device Name: EX3700_1, Fixed IP: 192.168.113.233

It accepts ethernet (wired) devices with fixed IP of 192.168.113.XXX

How_To_Configure_NETGEAR_EX3700

Nameserver and DHCP

chiara runs the DNS and DHCP for the Martian network, set up largely in the manner detailed in this website.

Configuration files can be found at

chiara:/etc/bind/named.conf.local
chiara:/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

and other files in those same directories.

Mount NFS filesystem

If you want to mount the /cvs/cds NFS filesystem on a computer already on the martian network, add the following line to the file /etc/fstab

chiara:/home/cds              /cvs/cds        nfs     rw,bg,nfsvers=3

Then make the directory where the /cvs/cds dir will be mounted, mount the filesystem via 

mkdir -p /cvs/cds
sudo mount /cvs/cds
