On connection to the network, if the machine's BOOT Method is Auto the machine will attempt to automatically set the IP address and Subnet Mask from a boot server such as DHCP or BOOTP. If a boot server can not be found, an APIPA IP address will be allocated, such as 169.254.[001-254].[000-255]. If the BOOT Method of the machine is set to Static you will need to manually enter an IP address from the machine's control panel.
