Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of one of the finest serial port
routers available today, Multi-Tech System’s RouteFinder Model
RF102S.
The RouteFinder RF102S provides shared Internet access for
up to 253 LAN users over a modem connection and one 1 IP
address. Virtual Server (IP Mapping) enables remote client
access to your network over the Internet. Remote clients can
connect directly to the LAN by dialing into the asynchrous port.
You can use IP Routing to segment your enterprise networks
into workgroups. The RF102S features an integrated 4-port 10/
100 switch. The Network Monitor Utility enables the network
administrator to view incoming and outgoing packets, the status
of network connections, and specific connection events. The
RF102S uses the NAT protocol to implement firewall and
gateway security for LAN-based resources. It also supports
Internet access restrictions by IP address, client protocols or a
list of forbidden sites. The RF102S can support Web, FTP, or
other Internet servers. The RF102 handles POP3, DNS, PPTP,
IRC, SMTP, Microsoft NetMeeting, multiplayer games,
RealPlayer, Quick Time, and other requests.
