Preparing Your Network
Since most Internet/network-related protocols are dependent on TCP/IP, you
need to install and configure TCP/IP on your computer before you can access
the Internet.
Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000, Macintosh OS 7 and later operating systems and
all versions of UNIX (including Linux) include the software components you
need to install and use TCP/IP on your computer.
After the appropriate TCP/IP components are installed, configure the TCP/IP
settings in order to "communicate" with your network. The ZyWALL assigns
these factory default values if you configure TCP/IP using DHCP:
•
IP address: between 192.168.1.33 and 192.168.1.64
•
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
•
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (the ZyWALL)
Do not assign an arbitrary IP address or subnet mask to
your computer, if you do, you will not be able to access the
Internet.
