Networking Basics
Assigning a Static IP Address
in Windows XP/2000
Input your
IP address and
subnet mask.
(The IP
Addresses on your network
must be within the same
range. For example, if one
computer has an IP
Address
of 192.168.0.2, the other
computers should have IP
Addresses that are
sequential, like 192.168.0.3
and 192.168.0.4. The subnet
mask must be the same for
all the computers on the
network.)
Input your
DNS server
addresses. (Note: If you
are entering a DNS
server, you must enter the
IP Address of the
Default
Gateway.)
The DNS server information will be supplied
by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
