Overview
For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
•
TCP/IP network settings

TCP/IP Settings
If using the default VPN 800/2 Firewall Router settings, and the default Windows
95/98/ME/2000/XP TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made. Just start (or restart) your
PC.
•
By default, the VPN 800/2 Firewall Router will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing a
suitable IP Address (and related information) to each PC when the PC boots.
•
For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting is to act as a DHCP client. In
Windows, this is called
Obtain an IP address automatically
.
Just start (or restart) your PC and it will obtain an IP address from the VPN 800/2 Firewall Router.
