Suppose the computer in your office has been configured with an IP address, and you move (along with your computer) to an office down the hall. If after the move your computer is connected to the same IP network, then it is not necessary to configure the IP address in your computer?

Answer:

The statement is True.

Step-by-step explanation:

IP (Internet Protocol) address is a unique address assigned to each machine over a network.

As soon as a machine/device is connected to the network, an Ip address is assigned to it. This address is possessed by the device as long as it is connected to the network. Unless the device is not disconnected in any way, their is no need to reconfigure the IP address in your computer.

IP addresses can also be set dynamically by going through the configuration setting of the router.
