Note:
3. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), a host can
automatically be given a unique IP address each time it connects to a
network--making IP address management an easier task for network
administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your network, you do not
need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information. Instead,
this information will be automatically given for the product.
4. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely identifies a host
connection to an IP network. System administrator or network designer
assigns the IP address. The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying
the network and the one identifying your node. The IP address is usually
written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to
255. For example, 192.168.001.002 could be an IP address.
