2.3 Using the Define Networks tool
By defining a network, you specify the common network parameters, such as net mask, gateway,
and so on, under a common name, called a “network”. Later, you apply a network name to a
server instead of entering all the network configuration, thus saving time and effort. Also, if a
network parameter changes, you only need to update the named network.
To define the network configuration parameters, invoke the Define Networks tool by selecting
the Options
→IC-Linux→Define Networks... menu item. You can also invoke this tool from the
Network Configuration Editor.
