Figure 4.20. Editing a Network Device

Note

Do not use the numbers as seen in this sample configuration. These values will not

work for your own network configuration. If you are not sure what values to enter,

contact your network administrator for assistance.

If you have a hostname (fully qualified domain name) for the network device, you can choose to

have DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) automatically detect it or you can manually

enter the hostname in the field provided.

Finally, if you entered the IP and Netmask information manually, you may also enter the Gate-

way address and the Primary and Secondary DNS addresses.

Tip

Even if your computer is not part of a network, you can enter a hostname for your

system. If you do not take this opportunity to enter a name, your system will be

known as localhost.
