Fixed IP Address

By default, most Unix installations use a fixed IP Address. If you wish to continue using a fixed IP Address, make the following changes to your configuration.

•Set your Default Gateway to the IP Address of the Load Balancer LB-2.

•Ensure your DNS (Name server) settings are correct.

To act as a DHCP Client (recommended)

The procedure below may vary according to your version of Linux and X -windows shell.

1.Start your X Windows client.

2.Select Control Panel - Network

3.Select the "Interface" entry for your Network card. Normally, this will be called "eth0".

4.Click the Edit button, set the "protocol" to "DHCP", and save this data.

5.To apply your changes

Use the "Deactivate" and "Activate" buttons, if available. OR, restart your system.
