Configuring Wireless 802.11 Communications
Go to Chapter 3 “Configuring the CN30 Computer” for configuration 
information.
AutoIP/DHCP
Automatic Private IP Addressing (AutoIP) is enabled by default in Win-
dows Mobile. To remain compatible with other versions of Windows 
Mobile, enable this setting. You can configure the registry settings in the 
following to set the required AutoIP/DHCP behavior:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PRISMNDS1\TcpIp
Other registry keys that modify the behavior of AutoIP are as follows. You 
can find the appropriate settings and behavior of each of the AutoInterval, 
AutoIP, AutoMask, AutoSeed, and AutoSubnet keys in Microsoft Help.
When a TCP/IP client cannot find a DHCP server, it generates an AutoIP 
address from the 169.254.xxx.xxx block. The client then tries to check for a 
DHCP server every 15 seconds and if a DHCP server is found, the client 
drops the AutoIP address and uses the address from the DHCP server.
