Re: want to open up LAN IP address If you were provided you with 5 static IP for the your PC's and an IP address for the WAN side of the Cayman (that's in a different subnet), that's the correct setup to use the 5 static IP's. Setup is very easy:
1. From the Cayman browser interface, click "Ethernet (LAN)" and assign one of your Static IP's to the Cayman (unless they have given you a specific LAN side IP address. If that's the case, us it instead. DO NOT use the WAN IP address here!).
2. Assign each PC an IP address from your pool of 5 statics. Make sure that you set the Gateway and DNS addresses on each PC to the IP address you gave the Cayman in Step 1.
3. From the Cayman browser interface, click "DSL Port (WAN)". Click "Configure" next to the VCC that corresponds to your ISP entry (probably VCC1).
4. Set "NAT" to "off".
5. If your WAN address is static, enter it in the "Local Address" field. If it's dynamic, leave it set to "0.0.0.0" (don't let the work "dynamic" here fool you, you PC's will still be static).
6. If you have been give a gateway address, enter it in the "Gateway" field. If not, leave it set to "0.0.0.0".
That's it. Your PC's will now be seen on the internet and all ports on all PC's are wide open. No need for pinholes, DMZ's, etc. are needed.
