Network Configuration

This was recorded in 1995. We were wired, basically, as follows:

                           Jack
                         ---------

Our addressing

In conjunction with Aurora, the EngSoc project managed the 134.117.69 Class C. Additionally, brewmaster.engsoc.carleton.ca ran the DNS for the engsoc.carleton.ca domain. Aurora acted as our secondary DNS, and we acted as their secondary DNS for aurora.carleton.ca, and some of their commercial domains.

Hardware

router.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.1 (Firewall)

386-33MHz
8MB RAM (DIP format)
40MB IDE drive
two SMC Ultra Ethernet cards
Operating system: DOS, running Drawbridge
Status: under construction
Role: IP traffic router
Source: This is owned in conjunction with Aurora; this machine was donated by the Office of the Dean of Engineering

brewmaster.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.21

This machine is on loan from the CSES
486-66MHz
16MB RAM
SMC Elite 16 bit ethernet
420MB IDE harddrive
170MB Maxtor IDE harddrive
Operating system: Linux 1.2.13
Status: Operational
Role: This machine is acting as a World Wide Web server and a DNS server. Brewmaster is not available for public logins.
Source: the machine itself is on loan until at least April 1, 1996 from the CSES; the SCSI controller and hard disk are on loan from an Engsoc volunteer

ale.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.22

486 motherboard, with VESA
486-66MHz
16MB RAM
SMC 16 bit ethernet
120MB IDE harddrive
Operating system: Linux 1.2.13
Status: Operational
Role: This machine is available for public use. It mounts all of its files via NFS to Lager.
Source: the motherboard was bought with personal donations from Engsoc users; the memory is a donation from the Office of the Dean of Engineering; the hard disk is on loan from the CSES; the CPU is on loan from an Engsoc volunteer
This machine can handle approximately twelve simultaneous users.

bitter.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.23

Pyramid MIS/4
three custom RISC processors
128MB RAM
six 1.67GB SMD Hard disks
This machine has two IP connections.
Operating system: Pyramid OSx
Status: installed, not yet operational
Role: This machine will act as our NFS server to lager because of its large storage capacity. It will also handle incoming mail.
Source: this machine was donated in conjunction with Pyramid Systems, and the Carleton University Library.

bitter-alt.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.24

This is bitter's second connection.

hops.engsoc.carleton.ca, 134.117.69.25

486-33MHz
