APPENDIX B
Setting Up Your Computer’s IP
Address
" Your specific ZyXEL device may not support all of the operating systems
described in this appendix. See the product specifications for more information
about which operating systems are supported.
This appendix shows you how to configure the IP settings on your computer in order for it to
be able to communicate with the other devices on your network. Windows Vista/XP/2000,
Mac OS 9/OS X, and all versions of UNIX/LINUX include the software components you need
to use TCP/IP on your computer.
If you manually assign IP information instead of using a dynamic IP, make sure that your
network’s computers have IP addresses that place them in the same subnet.
In this appendix, you can set up an IP address for:
• Windows XP/NT/2000 on page 242
• Windows Vista on page 245
• Mac OS X: 10.3 and 10.4 on page 249
• Mac OS X: 10.5 on page 252
• Linux: Ubuntu 8 (GNOME) on page 255
• Linux: openSUSE 10.3 (KDE) on page 259
