The smoothwall router assignes ips to computers on the Green Interface (trusted network) there IP's with a DHCP server.
The Red interface is the network card that hooks into your cable/DSL Modem
The Orange Interface is a sepriate network (also called DMZ) that cant access the Green Network.

On Mon, 5 Apr 2004, William C. Ray waxed:
Hello i was wondering how i can change the IP address information for my Asterisk box, IP addy, Gateway, DNS.
I have a smoothwall router that i am using and i am tring to put the Asterisk box on the orange interface so if anyone can help me please i can use it.
I was wondering what a smoothwall was, so I checked it out. smoothwall.org first, then when I saw the full color 86 page administrator guide, I thought, wow, this can't be all of it, so I found smoothwall.net, where they will sell you all manner of 'smoothie' flavors AKA linux. Neat. I saw one of these at a tradeshow the other day for $2500, so I took a second look, at least that's my excuse to the list for taking a look and helping out. :P
I'm assuming this is the commercial version in question. And from question 1 on the FAQ at smoothwall.net, it says that the orange interface is the DMZ and green is the local protected interface. There are also red IP's, not sure what they do. But this appears to be a traffic light running some form of embedded Linux.
Also in the FAQ, Mel Gibson gets props for his appearance as Mad Max, in Mad Max 2: The 'Road Warrior', which is what you use 'on the road' to get at your 'smoothie' -- one must hope it will still work after the apocalypse. Myself, I would rather use industrial hemp for fuel than fight over dinosaur bones, but that would make a pretty boring action movie. Maybe fodder for a Mel Brooks comedy ?
Anyhow, back to the question at hand, if you can change the IP address for a windows box via the smoothie windows GUI, chances are you can do the same for the Asterisk box. That's if you are running Asterisk on Linux, which I assume you didn't get it to compile on FreeBSD, so it's probably Linux. You might need to know the MAC address of the network card on the Asterisk box to change it's IP addy. Gateway and DNS should be the same as what you set on the windows boxes.
Apart from not knowing or being able to understand how exactly you got Asterisk running (configs, etc.), if you can do the IP stuff with smoothie for windows, you can probably do it with smoothie for linux.
