TCP/IP properties

This setting determines the network settings for the target machines, such as the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.

The preset is: The network settings of the master system

You have the options to:

• Use the network settings of the master system.
• Set up the target machines to obtain IP addresses automatically from a DHCP server.
• Specify a range of static IP addresses, a subnet mask, and a default gateway for the target machines. You may want to use this option if your network does not have the DHCP capability. Each machine will be assigned an IP address from the range. Make sure that the range is big enough. If there are more target machines than IP addresses in the range, deployment to the remaining machines will fail.

TCP/IP properties

If you have not selected to preserve the network settings of the master system settings, you can specify the DNS server. You can specify the IP address of the DNS server, such as 192.168.0.1; or the network name of the DNS server in Host name and Domain name, such as dns and example.com respectively if your DNS server is dns.example.com.

You will be able to change the network settings later when you start the operating system on the deployed machine.
