Ethernet adapter or NIC.
5. Click Properties. This displays the “TCP/IP Properties” dialog.

7. What is listed here will tell you how your PC is configured. You can select the applicable
DHCP Mode (either DHCP Client or Static IP) by using either of the following methods.
a. For DHCP Client mode – Select Obtain IP address automatically (DHCP Server
Mode).
