3 OS/2 Configuration
Overview
This chapter details a complete OS/2 configuration setup including:
1. Configuring the Ethernet Interface with its TCP/IP settings
2. Configuring a new printer on an OS/2 workstation. The procedure
given will be from an OS/2 Warp 4 system, but the setup is similar to
OS/2 Warp 3 and v2.11.
OS/2 must have TCP/IP installed on it and be configured with the correct
IP parameters. See OS/2 documentation/help and your network
administrator.
Configuring the Ethernet Interface TCP/IP Settings
There are mandatory TCP/IP settings (i.e., an IP address and subnet
mask) needed before the print server can be detected on the network.
There are also some additional settings that you may want to configure
but these are optional. This section offers alternative methods for
configuring your Ethernet Interface within an OS/2 environment and
mentions some of the more common optional settings available.
