Configuring TCP/IP Under Windows 95
There are two ways to assign an IP address. You can obtain an
IP address automatically or specify an IP address manually. Your
network administrator will specify which method to use, and if
required, provide an IP address for you to use.
To Obtain an IP Address Automatically
Follow these steps to obtain an IP address automatically:
1 Select the Obtain an IP address automatically radio button.
This option dynamically assigns a new IP address each time you
connect to the network.
2 Click Test IP Connection to test the DHCP server connection.
While the test is running, a progress bar indicates test progress.
If a test fails, a message indicates the error type. Click the Help
button in the error message screen to obtain more information.
Chapter
5 provides additional troubleshooting help.
