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

After plugging it to the network
