== Firewalling by Router:WRT310N ==
 . A firewall is used for network isolation between new CDS computers and the existing CDS system. It avoids network conflicts. For this purpose, a network router: ''LINKSYS WRT310N'' is used.

|| '''network address''' || 192.168.113.178 || ||
|| '''internal address'''|| 192.168.1.1 || ||
|| ''' DHCP address ''' || 192.168.1.100-150|| currently disabled ||

 . Anyone can log in to the router by any web browser. The login password is set to {{{admin}}}.

The 40m has two networks: the LIGO general computing network and an internal "martian" network.

LIGO Caltech network

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

Martian network

  • IP addresses on the martian network are in the form 192.168.113.XXX

  • The wireless network is on the martian network.

  • See the Martian host table for IP address assignments on the martian network.

  • When you want to add a new host to the Martian network read this.

  • To ssh to one of the martian computers from a GC computer, ssh into controls@nodus, then use name (or name.martian) for the name. i.e.

    ssh pianosa.martian 

Wireless Network

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.

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
