“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.)
