Preparing for OpenTCP TCP/IP Stack Development
Configuring TCP/IP Protocol in Windows
To set up the IP address for the development host in Windows, the IP address network settings of the
development host must be accessed in its operating system. For recent Windows releases, these settings
are located in the control panel. In the control panel, select network settings. A typical network settings
dialog box is shown in
Figure
10.
Figure 10. Network Settings Dialog Box
The network settings window shows all devices that can be used to form network connections.
Figure 10
shows two network devices defined for the PC. Network devices can also include modems.
The network settings window also shows the status of the network device. This status indicates whether
the network device has an Ethernet connection. Having an Ethernet connection does not necessarily
mean other Windows network settings for that device are set correctly (see
Debugging
Networks).
To access the IP address setting via the network settings dialog box, you must select the desired network
device and configure its properties. In the properties dialog box, select the TCP/IP protocol network
component for the TCP/IP adapter (see
Figure
11) and click Properties.
In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, manually enter a subnet mask and specific IP
address. Recall that the IP address used for the development host in this example is 192.168.2.1.
