Safa Journal

Right now most of the gateway from the cafe to use proxy. Here I will use a linux distro that can be used as a gateway from the cafe, which is ClearOS. For info about this ClearOS, Click here
According ClearOS penjelasin on the homepage of this, these distributions can be used in addition to the gateway, can also be used as server ^ ^, the following feature - a feature that is offered ClearOS for use as a gateway:

· Antimalware – Antivirus, Antiphishing, Antispyware
· Antispam
· Bandwidth Management
· Intrusion Protection, Intrusion Prevention, Intrusion Detection
· Protocol Filtering including Peer-to-Peer Detection
· Content Filter
· Web Proxy
· Access Control

other features above, some things that I found on these distributions are:
remote gateway from the client using a web browser.
1.configuration layout on the PC that we use as a gateway similar to the display in a web browser when we had a remote from the client, not just a black screen (console).
2.Installasi and configurations that I think is much easier and faster.
3.Web proxy, with this connection in the cafe you will feel quickly, because the page of the website in the cache on the server.
Last
4.Dan the most I like, FREE.
to make this gateway would need a PC that will be installed this ClearOS. Spec PC that will I use is:
P3 800Mhz processor
HP mobo (typenya forget)
256MB RAM
Seagate 10GB HDD
2 Lan Card, for eth0 and eth1.

After preparation Ok, now go directly to the installation of this ClearOS:
The first set it to first boot from this PC is a CD / DVD-Rom, after the set and CD ClearOS can walk, then the first tampilanya is as below:

we have to do, just press enter it. Because we're going to do a fresh install into this PC. Then wait until the next step.


here given the choice of language we will use, choose English.


Furthermore, here we choose the type of keyboard is used, select your keyboard type.

Furthermore, here there is a question where the source provided the installation in, because here I use the CD-ROM so select Local CD-ROM.

Here we were told to choose whether to install or upgrade. If you just want to install this ClearOS then select Install, whereas if there ClearOS and you want to upgrade select Upgrade.

Furthermore, here we are warned that all the contents of the disk will be deleted, and if you are already convinced then type ClearOS in the box provided.

Furthermore, here we are in the mode required to choose what we will use. So as previously described ClearOS has 2 modes of
1.Gateway Mode, which is used for the gateway.
2.Standalone Mode: used for the server.
So for this time that we choose is the Gateway Mode.

Next, we choose a type of Internet connection used. Here I choose Ethernet. Furthermore, here we choose whether its IP address using DHCP or manual configuration, here I choose the manual.
First I will explain first, to make this gateway we will use two NICs are:
1.NIC the first one to plug in between the gateway and the modem. (Eth0)
2.NIC a second to plug in between the gateway and the local network. (Eth1)
so that there will be two IP contained in this gateway, and also there are two different subnetworks for example 192.168.1.XX for example 192.168.0.XX for eth0 and eth1. This illustration can be seen below.

Well now return to the installation process before, here we enter the IP address for the first NIC (eth0). So the configuration is:
IP address: 192.168.1.2 / 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.1 (the IP of the modem)
Name Server: 202.134.0.155 (the control of Speedy) then here we enter the IP address for the second NIC (eth1). Furthermore, here input the password for the system / root of this ClearOS. And do not forget the verify, the password is what will be used to log into the system ClearOS and also do a remote from the client.

Next, here is to select the schema of this ClearOS partition. Here I choose Use Default. To select the default configuration of ClearOS, but if you are intending to set up its own partition configuration for this ClearOS you can choose I will do my own partitioning.
Furthermore, here we will choose the module - module standard that will be installed at this ClearOS, here I will activate the Graphical Console, Antimalware, Antispam, Bandwidth Manager, Intrusion Protection, Protocol Filters.
Furthermore, here we will choose the modules - additional modules that will be installed at this ClearOS, here I will enable Web Proxy, Content Filter, Windows Networking, and Web Servers.
Here is the last warning was whether all the settings you input is correct, if yes, select done. Next you take a cup of coffee and snack to wait installation process is complete, (which is optional you know)
Installation Process
after there was a message as below, then the installation is complete, then reboot the PC.

congratulations, you have successfully installed the Gateway cafe. I'll see you in the next article which is a continuation of this article about the configuration of this ClearOS.
