Next: Setting up routing and Up: Connecting the SEGA Dreamcast Previous: Connecting to an access   Contents   Index


Where are we?

Well, we see the finish line :-) We've got a connection to the access concentrator, so we can already surf the net on the SEGA Dreamcast gaming console. But for our aim to share an internet connection, we have to compile some other source packages to determine, which host may send which packets to the internet and vice versa, and for offering network address translation (NAT), known as MASQUERADING. So, the next chapter introduces iptables, the new routing and firewall generation for Linux kernels 2.4.x.
