NeoLinux 4.0 Thin Client User Manual

Network Configuration
40 On-board LAN
Name
Default: On-board lan
This field enables you to enter a descriptive name for this LAN
configuration. The name will be used to identify the network
configuration to the user.
Link type
Default: autosense
This specifies the speed (10 or 100 MB) and mode (Half or Full
duplex) of the network card. Selecting autosense will enable the thin
client to automatically detect the best speed and mode.
Autostart
Default: Checked
This determines whether this network connection is automatically
started when the thin client is powered-on or rebooted.
The IP Settings Tab Enable DHCP
Default: Checked
The setting of this option determines how the thin client obtains net-
work configuration settings.
When DHCP is enabled, the thin client will rely on a remote DHCP
configuration service to supply the required settings. These settings
are then saved in the thin client. At the next client bootup, if the
client cannot reach the DHCP server, the client will connect to the
network using the saved network information provided that the
initial lease time has not expired.
Unchecking this box will disable remote network configuration and
cause the thin client to use the network settings specified in the
following dialog options. You will need to ask your network
administrator for the entries required.
