Re: [northeast] FIOS and Inbound Port 80
Well If you look up you ip and assign it to your equipments outside interface and never reboot your equipment - theoretically shouldnt you have a static ip? Or if your equipment isnt power cycled at the time of the lease experation, wouldn't you retain the dynamic ip until the next time around? So far I have rebooted my equipment here a number of times, put the actiontech in bridge mode, never lost the address. Thoughts?
I think I can handle installing the cert on the phone - no biggie to save a few bucks. I will also try the smathost setup with outbound.verizon.net

according to verizon: at least in my area the lease is 24 hours and even when it releases they said Ill prolly get the same IP back anyways .....the only way I wouldnt is if the rare chance that someone else had their lease release at nearly the same instant and grab the IP I HAD lol
so even thought they promised dynamic IP it no way like DSL dynamic IP with DSL you could reboot comp and modem power off and wait 30 secs and get new IP :/ |

I cant test that anymore they made me send the router and the BIG set top box back when I had them switch me cat5e from ONT to comp....your in PA just call tech support and ask here there number: 888-553-1555
I know what your saying though I can see my IP in my software firewall and it hardly ever changes....its to their advantage to offer dynamic IP for a couple reasons:
1: we ran out of IP's about 2 years ago....so dynamic means we can still all connect
2. They dont have to buy as big a block of IP's if they offer dynamic
I would imagine that in the next year or so the lease times will drastically shorten and we'll get diff IP's more often just like the old DSL days....I've been a verizon customer for 6 years they rolled out DSL the same way...after 2 years they started releasing the IPs faster and even let us buy just internet w/o a credit card which they didnt do in the beginning....same as NOW with the FIOS |

DSL was PPPoE. My FIOS is PPPoE, and I can pull a different IP at the drop of a hat. IPs have been stickier on FIOS even with PPPoE, but any router disconnect, and I can get a new one.
DHCP provides a much stickier IP. If your router is always on, it will just renew the lease when the lease is half way through it's time. |

said by devicemanage :Well If you look up you ip and assign it to your equipments outside interface and never reboot your equipment - theoretically shouldn't you have a static ip? Setting your router's WAN interface to static with your current IP will only work until your current DHCP lease expires. If the WAN interface is set to static, it will not request or renew a DHCP lease. When your current DHCP lease expires without being renewed your previously assigned IP address is available to be assigned to someone else.
Since a DHCP client (your router) will normally renew the DHCP lease at 1/2 of the lease time, your lease essentially never expires as long as you keep renewing. If you disconnect your router past the lease expiration, then you may get a different IP address. Also, if VZ reboots their DHCP server (rare) you would get a different IP address. |

That's either defects from the provider or problems with the line, not the technology. I frequently have the same DSL IP/PPP session for 7 to 14 days now and before the change to ATM circuits from the way they were in the old days, my IP/PPP sessions ran 20 to 40 days.
»Over 1 month PPPoE session
»31 Days Same PPP Session - 5660 PPPoE

I have Verizon DSL here on ATM of course and I've seen my PPPoE sessions last for 2 months many times until the DSLAM reboots and I get a new IP because the modem had to resync. Though of course I've always been on ATM... |

Well I have the ssl up and running the active sync is running. Now when I configure iis for port 8008 and forward traffic from firewall to server, I can not get the site to load. Does anyone know of a port that works that I can try? Am I missing something here?

You have to use 443. Forward that to your computer running exchange. |

| Sorry I wasn't clear. I am not worried about exchane anymore. Exchange are you active sync is working and so is the owa.
I also have a websire running on the same server. I then opened port 8008 in the firewall and forwarded it to the exchange/web server. I can't access the site, the domain host has the correct ip. |

I can't access the site, the domain host has the correct ip. From the LAN side it is normal to not have access to any servers when trying the Public IP or the FQDN as only the Private LAN IP should work. Try accessing the server from the WAN using a Web Proxy like www.guardster.com or by having a friend test it.

I hear ya and I am aware about the access from the inside. I have been testing it and guardster says it isnt open. I must not be opening the port correctly. I will try again and see if there is anything I missed. It is a Cisco PIX 501.
My biggest beef is I want to be able to give out the url in normal fashion like www.domian.com plus I have many links out there right now that would need to be updated. Too bad I could point my A record for the domain at something and then have that redirect to my ip:port - know of anything like this?

Villanova, PA | you can always use a web forwarder to redirect the request to a specific URL with a port. All of the major DNS hosts provide this.
OR
You could offload the website to a hosting provider. |
