Normally, some of the boxes on the right are not available and
you need to enable the Advanced Mode either by typing Command-U
or going to the Edit menu and selecting User
Mode. This will bring up the User Mode window. Then click
on the Advanced Mode button and close the window.
Make sure that Ethernet built-in is selected from
the Connect via drop-down menu and Using
DHCP Server from the Configure menu. Leave
the DHCP Client ID field blank. In the Name
server addr field type:
10.160.132.172
10.134.252.100
10.134.252.101
Fill in the Search domains fields as shown in the
above picture.
Close the TCP/IP Control Panel window and save changes when asked.
If you have an older beige Mac you may have an extra Ethernet adapter
installed in a PCI slot. If you see another option in the Connect
via menu, such as Ethernet Slot A1 (or alike) look at the
back of your machine and see where the Ethernet cable is plugged
in. If it's plugged in to a port that's on the upper/middle right
side of the computer, it's the built-in Ethernet port/adapter. If
it's plugged in to a slot on the very bottom of the computer, it's
the additional PCI slot Ethernet card (usually faster). Remember
though that the hardware addresses will be unique for each Ethernet
adapter. You have to use the one that you have requested an IP for
or it will not work.
IP address is usually assigned within 48 hours from the the form
submission. Once your control panel is set up properly, your Mac
will get its own IP address automatically whenever it starts up.
The IP address, even though assigned dynamically by the DHCP server,
is always the same. It is tied up to your hardware address. IP addresses
are unique to each floor. Therefore, if you move your machine to
another floor you will need to request a new IP and return the previous
IP.
