Configuring Your Computer with Windows NT 4.0
Step 1. Configure TCP/IP Settings
After you have completed the hardware setup, you need to configure your
computer to connect to your Barricade. You need to determine how your
ISP issues your IP address. Many ISPs issue these numbers automatically
using a networking technology known as Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol, or DHCP. Other ISPs will specify your IP address and associated
numbers, which you must enter manually. This is known as a static or fixed
IP address. How your ISP assigns your IP address determines how you will
configure your computer.
Here is what to do:
1. From the Windows
desktop click “Start/
Settings/Control
Panel.”
2. Double-click the
“Network” icon.
