Conguring Your Computer
with Windows 2000
Step 1. Congure TCP/IP Settings
After you have completed the hardware setup, you need to congure
your computer to connect to your Barricade. You also need to
determine how your ISP issues your IP address. Many ISPs issue
these numbers automatically, using a networking technology known
as Dynamic Host Control Protocol, or DHCP. Other ISPs will specify
your IP address and associated numbers, which you must enter
manually. This is also known as a static IP address. How your ISP
assigns your IP address determines how you will congure your
computer.
1. From the Windows desktop, click the “Start” button. Choose
“Settings,” then click “Control Panel.”
2. Double-click the “Network & Dial-Up Connections” icon.
3. Double-click the icon that corresponds to the connection to your
Barricade.
4. Click “Properties.”
5. Double-click “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).”
6. All the information that you need to record is on the “Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties” dialog box. Use the spaces below to
record the information. If “Obtain an IP address automatically” and
“Obtain DNS server address automatically” are already selected, your
computer is already congured for DHCP. Click “Cancel” to close each
window, and skip to Step 2 “Disable HTTP Proxy.”
7. Select “Obtain an IP address automatically” and then select “Obtain
DNS server address automatically.” Then click “OK.” Click “OK” or
“Close” to close each window.
