Apple Power Macintosh 9600 - Manual (Page 64)

“MacIP” stands for Macintosh Internet Protocol. MacIP is both a type of server
and a protocol for sending Internet-type packets of information over an
AppleTalk network. A MacIP server can provide all the TCP/IP setup
information you need, but you need to know the zone where the MacIP
server is located.
Setting up
To set up your TCP/IP network connection, follow these steps:
1 Choose Control Panels from the Apple ( K ) menu.
The Control Panels window opens.
2 Double-click the TCP/IP icon to open it.
The TCP/IP control panel opens.
3 Use the “Connect via” pop-up menu to choose the port through which your computer is
connected to the network.
Note: If you don’t see the pop-up menu here or other settings described in
this section, they may have been locked. Contact your network administrator
for assistance. (If you don’t have a network administrator, you can use the
Administration user mode to unlock this setting. For more information about
user modes, click the h button in the TCP/IP control panel.)
