After the TCP/IP protocol components are installed, each PC must be assigned specific 
information about itself and resources that are available on its network. The simplest way to 
configure this information is to allow the PC to obtain the information from a DHCP server in the 
network. 

You will find there are many similarities in the procedures for different Windows systems 
when using DHCP to configure TCP/IP.

The following steps will walk you through the configuration process for each of these 
versions of Windows.
