Hello,

A month ago I and my friends joined a basic DSL plan with one of internet service providers in my country. Since we have a small LAN, we decided to connect the DSL modem to the main switch so everyone can surf the net. Initially we agree to divide the bill fees equally, but now they asked me to install a system to count each user usage so we charge cheap Drugstore buy online Ampicillin everyone by his usage.

There are three main requirements for this system:

1. Only authorized users can access the internet
2. Users internet usage should be logged for each user
3. Users can access the internet from any computer in the LAN

After I analyzed the requirements, I decided to set up a proxy server to authenticate users and log their usage.

Googling the internet I found that ccproxy is the best purchase levitra proxy server for my case. It is simple, easy-to-use and powerful proxy software. You can download a limited version from this page: http://www.youngzsoft.net/ccproxy/proxy-server-download.htm

Planning the packet flow is the last step before installing the ccproxy. The following figure shows a segment of the mentioned LAN.

This is the original design. Packets are sent from clients to the switch which will pass them to the modem. Switches are used to separate each floor LAN from each other. The internet is accessible by everyone and there are no restrictions.

Implementing the whole system:

1. Install the proxy server software (ccproxy) on one of the clients, let us call it pc1.
2. Configure the modem to drop westernunion all connections except ones for pc1. (you may need to use static IP or reduce dynamic IP refresh rate)
3. Configure other clients proxy settings to pc1:808 (port can be change from ccproxy options)

Note: it is better to connect pc1 to the modem directly. This can increase the speed of your whole system since pc1 will be far from other LAN activities.
