The Client Setup CD will modify your client computer’s network configuration to match
that of the Magnia SG20. If your client computer is already configured for use with
another network (such as a corporate LAN), you may wish to manually configure your
client for Magnia SG20 access.
If you need to set up client computers without using the Client Setup CD, see
Configuring Clients for the Magnia SG20
on page 285. To configure a Macintosh, see
