IPv4 Status Fields
Field Description
IP Type Displays the IP type for the current profile: DHCP or Static. If the IP type is DHCP, leased IP
address and network address data appear for the mobile computer. If the IP type is Static, the
values displayed were input manually in the
IP Config tab on page 4-19.
IP Address Displays the mobile computer’s IP address. The Internet is a collection of networks with users
that communicate with each other. Each communication carries the address of the source and
destination networks and the particular machine within the network associated with the user
or host computer at each end. This address is called the IP address. Each node on the IP
network must be assigned a unique IP address that is made up of a network identifier and a
host identifier. The IP address as a dotted-decimal notation with the decimal value of each
octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.
Subnet Displays the subnet address. Most TCP/IP networks use subnets to manage routed IP
addresses. Dividing an organization's network into subnets allows it to connect to the Internet
with a single shared network address, for example, 255.255.255.0.
Gateway Displays the gateway address. A gateway forwards IP packets to and from a remote
destination.
