TIP: Resetting the Network Configuration to the Defaults
Reset the network settings to the original proposed values by clicking Change
> Reset to Defaults. This discards any changes made.
Test Internet Connection
After having configured a network connection, you can test it. For this purpose, YaST
establishes a connection to the SUSE Linux Enterprise server and downloads the latest
release notes. Read them at the end of the installation process. A successful test is also
a prerequisite for registering and updating online.
If you have multiple network interfaces, verify that the desired card is used to connect
to the Internet. If not, click Change Device.
To start the test, select Yes, Test Connection to the Internet and click Next. In the next
dialog, view the progress of the test and the results. Detailed information about the test
process is available via View Logs. If the test fails, click Back to return to the network
configuration to correct your entries.
If you do not want to test the connection at this point, select No, Skip This Test then
Next. This also skips downloading the release notes, configuring the customer center,
and updating online. These steps can be performed any time after the system has been
initially configured.
