STEP ONE
The first step is to determine the parameters needed to configure the Fast Ethernet interface (ETH0). The parameters
in the Network Protocol Menu (IP) are shown in Figure 4.2. Fill in the blanks for your application in the right-most

Each parameter in this menu is explained in more detail in chapter 5 of the Installation Guide.
