Macintosh to System 9.2.x

Note: Support of users who install to a custom directory location or otherwise deviate from these instructions may be limited. MOREnet documentation is written to support installation and configuration using default directories and layouts as described below. MOREnet Technical Support strongly recommends you follow these directions carefully and accurately.

This document gives instruction on basic manual IP address assignment to a Macintosh workstation with Open Transport TCP/IP services installed. If it has not been determined that the system has Open Transport installed, see the MOREnet document Determine the Status of Your TCP/IP Software.

Before beginning the workstation configuration, have the IP number which is assigned to the workstation, the subnet mask number, and the router or gateway IP number. The workstation will need to have a properly installed Network Interface Card (Ethernet or Token Ring card), with the appropriate drivers installed.

Configure TCP/IP

1. Open the System Folder, then the Control Panels folder, then the TCP/IP control panel.

2. In the TCP/IP configuration window, set the panel to the following:

• Connect via: Ethernet or Token Talk.

• Configure: Manually.

• Fill in the IP address, subnet mask and router or gateway address.

• Look up the DNS servers for your area and write them into the blanks below for future reference.
