a router. In this case, we use the P-661HNU-Fx which works as a general
Router plus an ADSL Modem.
Set up your workstation
(1) Ethernet connection
Connect the LAN ports of all computers to the LAN Interface of P-661HNU-Fx
using Ethernet cable.
(2) TCP/IP configuration
Since the P-661HNU-Fx is set to DHCP server as default, so you need only to
configure the workstations as the DHCP clients in the networking settings. In
this case, the IP address of the computer is assigned by the P-661HNU-Fx.
The P-661HNU-Fx can also provide the DNS to the clients via DHCP if it is
available. For this setup in Windows, we check the option
'Obtain an IP
address automatically'
in its TCP/IP setup. Please see the example shown
below.
