Next to Net device, use the pull−down menu or type in the device name of the client adapter. Your
client adapter's name and number are eth0 if it is the only Ethernet adapter card installed.

Note: If you are unsure about the device name and number, you can verify your device's information
by running ACU and using the Commands menu to select Status. The Device field of the Status
screen in the ACU indicates the name and number of the adapter being used.

If your computer does not get its IP address from a DHCP server, contact your network administrator to find
out the correct IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address of your computer.

On Red Hat and other distributions that include the linuxconf utility, you should use this utility to set the IP
address of the computer. You must be logged in as root or have equivalent superuser privileges. Users of other
distributions should follow their distribution's recommendations on configuring IP addressing.

Complete these steps to configure the IP address with the linuxconf utility:

At a command prompt, type linuxconf and press ENTER.

1. 

Under the Config tab, select Networking > Client tasks > Basic host information.

2. 

Select the appropriate adapter tab for your Cisco Aironet Client Adapter. Your client adapter's number
is Adaptor 1 if it is the only Ethernet adapter card installed.

3. 

Make certain that the box marked Enabled is checked.

4. 

For Config mode, select Manual.

5. 

Type the IP address and the netmask in the spaces provided for them. You may need to contact your
network administrator to determine the correct values to use.

6. 

Next to Net device, use the pull−down menu or type in the device name of the client adapter. Your
client adapter's name and number are eth0 if it is the only Ethernet adapter card installed.

Note: If you are unsure about the device name and number, you can verify your device's information
by running ACU and using the Commands menu to select Status. The Device field of the Status
screen in the ACU indicates the name and number of the adapter being used.

7. 

Under the Config tab, select Routing and gateways > Set defaults.

8. 

Type the IP address of the default gateway. You may need to contact your network administrator to
determine the correct value to use.

9. 

Click Accept, then click Act/Changes and Quit.

10. 

Once the driver installation and utility configuration are complete, you can restart the network services or
simply reboot.

The driver and client utility installation is complete. For instructions on how to use each utility, refer to the
Cisco Aironet Wireless LAN Adapters Software Configuration Guide or readme.txt file that accompanied the
drivers in the tarball.
