Network Settings

This chapter describes how to configure the network settings on the machine.
You can configure the machine to obtain an IP address automatically, without needing to specify any network settings to establish a network connection. Note that you may need to specify these settings, depending on your network type.
Network Settings, such as IP Address, LPD, RAW and WSD (other than IEEE802.1X settings) are the same for both wired LAN and wireless LAN.
