Network Configuration Cabling and Configuring Your Network Connection 1 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into one of the RJ-45 network interface connectors (NIC) (see Figure 1-8) on the back of your system. See the Hardware Owner's Manual for the NIC locations. 2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a functioning Ethernet jack. 3 Verify that the NIC connector LED is lit (see Figure 1-8). If the LED is steady green, the connection is good. If the LED is flashing amber, data is successfully being transferred. 4 If the LED is not lit, make sure that each end of the Ethernet cable is seated properly in the NIC connector and Ethernet jack. Figure 1-8. NIC Connector NOTE: The NIC connector's physical orientation may vary depending on your system. See your system's Hardware Owner's Manual for more information. Configuring TCP/IP Using DHCP (Default Setting) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled by default on your system. If your network is not configured with a DHCP server, proceed to "Configuring TCP/IP Using a Static IP Address" on page 15 to configure a static IP address on your system. Use the following procedure to verify your system's DHCP configuration. 14 Getting Started
