Introduction

Some internet services provider such as alice in italy have a box(alice gate) that does everything(such as router and access point)...unfortunately we want to offer services to the internet such as:

  • ssh
  • web server
  • port redirection for various applications such as games server(such as wormux that needs an open port in order to serve),or p2p

Fortunately the alice gate let us connect directly to the internet: see here for how to deactivate the router functions and so be connected directly to the internet...

The hardware

For my setup, and the instructions included here, I used the same hardware as in AccessPoint that is to say:

  • 2 Realtech PCI 10/100 cards, on FreeBSD. These cards are recognized as rl0 and rl1. (Perhaps there is the possibility to use interfaces aliasing, but as i had 2 cards...)
  • 1 Ralink rt2500 PCI card, on FreeBSD. This card is recognized as ral0.
