Networking Basics

Assigning a Static IP Address

Select Use the following IP address

in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window,

Input your IP address and subnet mask. (The IP Addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one computer has an IP Address of 192.168.0.2, the other computers should have IP Addresses that are between 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.254. No two computes can have the same IP Address. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network.)

Input your DNS server address only if you plan to use the Internet.

(Note: If you are entering a DNS server address, you must also enter the IP Address of the Default Gateway.)

The DNS server information will be provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider.)

Click OK

You have completed the assignment of a Static IP Address. (You do not need to assign a Static IP Address if you have a DHCP-capable Gateway/Router.)
