Windows TCP/IP Setup
Overview
TCP/IP Settings
If using the default Load Balancer settings, and the default Windows 95/98/ME/2000
settings, no changes need to be made.
By default, the VPN800/8 F Firewall will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing
a suitable IP Address (and related information) to each PC when the PC boots.
For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting is to act as a DHCP client.
If you wish to check your TCP/IP settings, the procedure is described in the following sections.
