Question
How do I configure a MAC OS X computer for basic connectivity?
Answer
By default, MAC OS X is configured as a DHCP client.  However, if MAC OS X has been configured with a static (manually configured) IP address, and if the computer needs to receive an IP address automatically, then MAC OS X will need to be reconfigured as a DHCP client.  This document describes how to configure for DHCP setup.
