14 | APPENDIX B: TWO-NODE NETWORKING
Configuring a Two-Node Network
The network you are about to create is a static peer-to-peer network. Please
follow these guidelines while creating your network:
•
The Windows CE-based mobile computer and Windows notebook must
each be assigned their own IP address. We recommend using a private
IP range from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.255.
•
After setting up the IP addresses for both devices from the range
suggested above, enter the notebook’s IP address in the
Primary WINS
field of the
Name Servers
screen. Refer to Chapter 2, “Setup,” for
directions on how to access the
Name Servers
screen.

•
After entering your notebook’s IP address, you must reboot the
notebook for the new settings to take effect.
•
After changing your Windows CE-based mobile computer’s IP settings,
you must remove the 10/100 Ethernet CF Card and re-insert it for the
new settings to take effect.
•
After setup is complete, connect the Windows CE-based mobile
computer to the notebook. You are now ready to use ActiveSync. For
instructions, please refer to the section, “Use ActiveSync via a
Network,” in Chapter 2, “Setup.”
