DHCP can be used if it is available. If DHCP is used, then steps 19c through 19g are 
not necessary. Otherwise, the system administrator will have to configure TCP/IP 
settings. 
For the purpose of this whitepaper, DHCP is disabled so steps 19c through 19g can 
be illustrated. Step h will appear for both DHCP and Static configurations.
