If you want to use this Mac in more than place (perhaps at home as well as at your 
workplace) or on more than one network, you can achieve this easily by setting up 
a Location for each place or network. Swapping Locations then becomes a simple 
matter of selecting the appropriate Location. If you wish to do this, you will need to 
click on the “Location” pop-up menu and select “New Location…”. You will be asked 
to name your new location.

5.  

Give your New Location a meaningful name and click OK. Make sure that the 
Location you have just created is displayed in the Location pop-up menu.

6.  

If you do not wish to set up more than one Location, make sure that the Location 
pop-upmenu is set to “Automatic”.

7.  

Click on the “Show” pop-up menu and select “Built in Ethernet”. Click on the TCP/ 
IP tab.The TCP/IP settings will be displayed. Click on the “Configure” pop-up menu 
(“Configure iPV4” if you’re using Mac OS 10.3) and select “Using DHCP”. Click on 
Apply Now to save the changes.

Your dialog box should now look like this:
