3-LAN Protocols and TCP-IP

This document discusses TCP/IP and its installation and configuration. It begins by introducing TCP/IP as an important internet protocol that supports communication on UNIX and other networks. It then provides an example scenario of configuring a workstation for internet access by installing TCP/IP. The document goes on to explain that TCP/IP installation and configuration is a two-step process of first installing the protocol, which is often automatic, and then configuring its properties, which can be done dynamically via DHCP or statically. It provides details on accessing and configuring TCP/IP properties in different Windows operating systems.

LAN PROTOCOLS AND TCP/IP

TCP/IP
An

important protocol used widely on the Internet A routable protocol Supports communication with UNIX networks or any other network that work under the TCP/IP protocol

The base protocol in UNIX networks is TCP/IP

Can

be used for configuring peer-to-peer as well as client-server networks of very large scale

A TCP/IP APPLICATION SCENARIO


Lab
Workstation Internet Router

Workstation

Local Router

The Internet

Configure the workstation for Internet access by Installing TCP/IP.

MODULE
Basic TCP/IP Installation and Configuration

TCP/IP INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION


A

two-step process First, install the protocol


With many modern OSs such as Windows XP, it is automatically installed
Second,

configure its properties

When TCP/IP is automatically installed, the properties are set to be obtained from a DHCP server However, it is also possible to manually set the properties

TCP/IP INSTALLATION STEPS


Start From Network Neighborhood/ Properties.

Choose Network/ Properties

Install Protocol Add Choose TCP/IP OK

TCP/IP protocol installed.


End

ACCESSING THE WINDOW FOR TCP/IP PROPERTIES


Under

different Windows operating systems the TCP/IP properties are accessed in different ways

The best and the most consistent way to access TCP/IP properties Windows is to go through the Control Panel and then select the Network Icon Another way to access the properties is to go through Network Neighborhood Thereafter, select the network properties (Based on the NIC) and then then continue to select the TCP/IP properties

ACCESSING TCP/IP PROPERTIES TAB


Start From Network Neighborhood/ Properties.

Choose Network

TCP/IP/ Properties

Proceed Define TCP/IP properties

TCP/IP CONFIGURATION OPTIONS


Dynamic

IP

A DHCP server must be present in the network to issue dynamic IP In a number of cases, the MAC address of the client is registered to prevent unauthorized leasing of IP addresses to clients

Static

IP

Obtain the IP address specifications from the network administrator

DHCP AND TCP/IP CONFIGURATION


Without

a DHCP server

Requires the static assignment of IP addresses and properties The DHCP server need not reside on the same subnet

With

a DHCP server

IP addresses etc. are automatically assigned by the DHCP server Select the appropriate option for the TCP/IP address to be dynamically assigned by the DHCP server
