Episode 95: IP Configuration — Static, DNS, Subnet, Gateway

from Certified - The CompTIA A+ Audio Course Hosted by Dr. Jason Edwards

IP addressing is the foundation of network communication, and this episode provides a deep dive into how it's configured on Windows systems. We explain how to assign a static I P address manually, including setting the subnet mask, default gateway, and primary and secondary DNS servers. Then we show how to switch back to dynamic addressing using DHCP when appropriate. We also review how improper IP settings can cause connectivity issues, such as inability to browse the internet or communicate with local devices. These types of misconfigurations frequently appear in scenario-based questions on the exam. By the end of this episode, you’ll be confident in interpreting and modifying IP settings through both graphical and command-line tools. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
