You use the TCP/IP control panel to set up your connection to the Internet and to a TCP/IP network. TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, a standard system for connections between computers of different types.

You may need additional information about the network to which your computer is connected, or about the service through which your computer is connected to the Internet. To get this information, you may need to contact your network administrator or your Internet service provider.

For help with setting up and using your AppleTalk and TCP/IP control panels, see Mac OS Help.

Securing Your Computer

To deter theft of your computer and the components inside it, you can purchase a locking cable and attach it to your computer. The back panel has a built-in port for a locking cable, and the computer cover has a lockable latch that prevents the computer from being opened.

When the lockable cover latch is pulled out, the computer’s cover cannot be removed.

You can pass a security cable or padlock through this opening in the cover latch to keep it in its locked position.

Security lock port

Your computer products retailer has security lock devices that fit this port and can secure your computer to your workspace.

Follow the instructions supplied with the locking cable to secure it to your computer. When you install the locking cable, be sure to thread the cable through the lockable latch on the cover; this locks the computer cover and prevents memory, disk drives, and expansion cards from being removed.
