TCP/IP 2.0.1
|
The TCP/IP control panel provides a user
interface for configuring TCP/IP protocols.
- To cut down the amount of typing required to manually
configure TCP/IP, the "IP Address" field now allows
addresses to be entered in "address/mask" notation. For
example, if the address "12.34.56.78/24" is entered, the
24-contiguous-ones mask value (255.255.255.0) is
automatically entered in the "Subnet mask" field, and the
"Router address" field, if empty, is automatically
initialized to the first valid address on that subnet
(12.34.56.1 in this example). The "Subnet mask" and
"Router address" fields remain editable should the user
wish to change the automatically entered values.
- A new field has been added allowing users to enter
their DHCP "client id".
