Introducing Windows 2000 Professional

The Windows 2000 Professional Setup program automatically creates a typical network configuration (called a connection) for each network adapter, which users are free to customize. Each connection includes Client for Microsoft Networks, File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks, and the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled.

Users can modify the default network connection to suit their needs by using Network and Dial-up Connections in Control Panel.
