== Connecting to the Private Grad Net with a Dynamic IP Address ==

If you just want to get on a network and use your computer and no one needs to connect to your computer from other places on the network, this is the simplest option for you.

* Set your computer to use DHCP. (Most systems come with this setup by default.)
* Plug your computer into a network jack on the '''''private''''' network. (This should be using an ''odd-numbered'' network jack.)
** Depending on your operating system, you may have to reboot your computer at this point.
** If there are no available odd-numbered network jacks in your area, email [mailto:support@cs.jhu.edu CS Support] and tell us what network jacks you have available.
* You now have a dynamically-assigned IP Address on the CS Private Grad/Research Net.

(NOTE: Sometime in the future, we will be using a different method for providing a dynamically-assigned IP, but for now, the procedure above works.)

== Connecting to the Private Grad Net with a Static IP Address ==

* Follow the instructions at [[Requesting a Static IP Address on the CS Network]]. Request a private address.
* Once you have been notified of the availability of your IP address, follow the instructions at [[Using a Static IP Address on the CS Grad Nets]].

== Connecting to the Public Grad Net with a Static IP Address ==

''Note:'' Only approved static IP addresses may be used on the Public CS Grad/Research Net. There is no dynamic IP address service available on that network.

* Follow the instructions at [[Requesting a Static IP Address on the CS Network]]. Request a public address.
* Once you have been notified of the availability of your IP address, follow the instructions at [[Using a Static IP Address on the CS Grad Nets]].
