Configuring your network connection
After you physically connect your computer to a LocalTalk or Ethernet
network, you need to configure your network connection in the AppleTalk
control panel, the TCP/IP control panel, or both.
You use the AppleTalk control panel to set up your connection to an
AppleTalk network (that is, a network using the AppleTalk protocol).
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.
