Configuring TCP/IP Properties Manually

If you choose not to configure your PC by DHCP, you must manually enter the following
information in the TCP/IP Properties section of the Network Control Panel of your PC:

IP address and subnet mask (choose from your assigned IP addresses or private IP addresses)

Gateway (enter the IP address of the router)

DNS server addresses (enter IP addresses provided by your ISP)

Verifying TCP/IP Properties

After your PC has been configured and rebooted, you can check the TCP/IP configuration using

the Windows utility winipcfg.exe (for Windows NT

®

systems, use ipconfig.exe). From the “Start”

button, open the Run window, type winipcfg, and click on “OK.”

Note: In addition to displaying the current TCP/IP properties, the winipcfg utility allows
you to release and renew DHCP-assigned information without rebooting the PC.
