Overview
This chapter contains checklists of every setting you need to configure the
Pipeline to connect to a single remote network, with space for you to record your
settings. Wherever possible, parameters are left at their default value.
This is the easiest method of getting started. For most small office/home office
installations, this basic configuration is all you need to use your Pipeline. For
information on setting up incoming connections and additional outgoing
connections, refer to the chapter entitled, “Configuring WAN Connections,” in
the User’s Guide.
For an example of how to configure TCP/IP on a computer running Windows 95

how to set up an IP routing connection (to connect to the Internet or to a network
using TCP/IP), see Appendix B, “IP Routing Configuration Example. ”
