I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure how to answer this. If you have a router or
other such network device on your network already then you don't need to
configure IP addresses or other details on the "new" computer, as it will
get what it needs from the router. If you don't then you'll need to
configure the "new" computer in a similar manner to the "old" computers on
the network.
