Network Configuration Issues

If you suspect that the TCP/IP networking on one of your systems is not working correctly, you can log on to the system and enter the following at the command prompt (Start -> Run, and then type cmd):

Ipconfig /all

You should see a list of the installed network adapters with IP addresses and other IP configuration data. If no IP address or only an autoconfiguration IP address is displayed, the network components are either not configured or not functioning properly. If this occurs when the IP address configuration is set to obtain an IP address automatically, this means the machine was unable to contact a DHCP server. For more information on configuring TCP/IP, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=154884.
