Example Network Topologies

Transparent Mode Using One Network Interface
Installation Notes
• To avoid changes to the clients’ configuration, assign
the existing gateway address used by the clients to
the CacheRaQ’s Network 1 interface.
• Assign a new IP address to the Router/Firewall.
• Use the router/firewall’s new IP address as the
gateway setting on the CacheRaQ.
Advantage
No special configuration for the client machines is
necessary.
Disadvantage
If the CacheRaQ fails, the clients cannot access the
outside network until the CacheRaQ comes back on-line.
However, if the clients can be configured with multiple
gateway addresses, you can configure them with the new
IP address for the router/firewall. The clients can then
use this address if the CacheRaQ fails.
