Configuration

This chapter describes how to configure the thin client for connection to your network.

Introduction

Your thin client must be assigned a unique Internet Protocol (IP) address in order to communicate on your network. Your network may also require other settings.

If your network uses a remote configuration service such as DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the thin client will automatically configure itself for the network when you switch it on. DHCP provides the settings that the thin client must use to communicate on the network.

If your network does not use DHCP, or you need to enter network settings manually, use the dialogs displayed from the Control Panel

-Network Connections window, or the Network Settings dialog

for general settings, as described in the following sections.
