TCP/IP Configuration Notebook Online Help
On most LAN-connected computers, the minimum configuration
required to run TCP/IP is:
- Complete the Basic Options page of the Network tab
for at least one LAN adapter, typically LAN interface 0.
- Read the information on configuring the Routing tab
to determine if any special situations apply to the computer you are
configuring. If so, you may need to complete the fields on the Routing tab.
Otherwise, go to the Autostart tab and set the autostart options for dynamic
routing by way of ROUTED.
- Complete the Computer's Host Name, Local Domain Name, and Name Server
Addresses fields on the Configure Name Resolution
Services page of the Host Names tab.
Some other key tasks to consider doing when configuring TCP/IP are:
- Setting up servers and adding users
- Configuring SOCKS
- Configuring printer services
- Autostarting services (like FTP)
