APPENDIX B

Setting Up Your Computer’s IP

Address

Note: Your specific ZyXEL device may not support all of the operating systems

described in this appendix. See the product specifications for more information

about which operating systems are supported.

This appendix shows you how to configure the IP settings on your computer in
order for it to be able to communicate with the other devices on your network.
Windows Vista/XP/2000, Mac OS 9/OS X, and all versions of UNIX/LINUX include
the software components you need to use TCP/IP on your computer.
If you manually assign IP information instead of using a dynamic IP, make sure
that your network’s computers have IP addresses that place them in the same
subnet.
In this appendix, you can set up an IP address for:
Windows XP/NT/2000 on page 262
