How to plug a new network device?
Before plugging it to the network
1. Make sure it doesn't serve any DHCP leases. If you're not sure about what this means ask to the net-admin closest to you.
2. Set up manually an IP address for the device. You should look on suk:/etc/hosts for an available address coherently to the already assigned addresses. Document the address that you're gonna use.
3. Set up the proper gateway: 172.31.16.4
4. Set up the proper netmask: 255.255.240.0
Plugging it to the network
1. Insert smoothly the cable in the designated ethernet port until you hear a confirmation sound.
After plugging it to the network
1. Remember to update the Network Map repo.
