LAC Properties Oddity

On my gigabit ethernet card, I've added a static address, click apply and
then close the control panel. Whenever I go back into the control panel,
instead of my static address it shows 0.0.0.0 and not the static IP address
I've entered. If I go into advanced, it shows both the 0's and the static
address. What gives? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dan

Hello Dan,

Thank you for posting here.

According to your description, I understand that:

IP address 0.0.0.0 is automatically added on your computer.

If I have misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.

For further investigation, please answer the following questions:

1. What is the operating system that your server/workstation is running on?
2. For a clean understanding of your issue, could you please take a
screenshot of the issue in Control Panel and send to me at
v-(E-Mail Removed).
3. Please also collect the "route print" and "ipconfig /all" output from
the problematic server/workstation.
4. Please try the following to see if it works:
a. Click Start , type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
b. Locate the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Tcpip\Parameters

c. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value .
d. Type ArpRetryCount .
e. Right-click the ArpRetryCount registry entry, and then click Modify .
f. In the Value data box, type 0 , and then click OK .
g. Exit Registry Editor.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to let me
know.
