Cascading Your Router

The ZoneAlarm router protects all computers and network devices that are connected to its LAN ports. If desired, you can increase the router's port capacity by cascading hubs or switches.

To cascade the ZoneAlarm router to a hub or switch

1. Connect a standard Ethernet cable to one of the router's LAN ports.

   The ZoneAlarm router automatically detects cable types, so you can use either a straight-through or crossed Ethernet cable.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to an Ethernet hub or switch.
3. Connect additional computers and network devices to the hub or switch as desired.
