IP Address
Everyone who logs on to the Internet needs to have a unique identifier
(an IP address), whether permanent or temporary. Some networks
dynamically assign a temporary IP address when clients log in. The IP
Address field lets you identify whether your network provides
automatic (dynamic) temporary IP addressing.
Note: If your IP address is permanently assigned, you will need to
get that information from your System Administrator. If you
are not sure, select Automatic.
To identify dynamic IP addressing:
■ Select the IP Address check box to activate this option.
