Abstract
A computer-executable system and method thereof are provided for remote dynamic network configuration in a remote network management environment of TCP/IP base. Through a server management daughter card located on an agent terminal, a medium access control address of the agent terminal is used to request a corresponsive internet protocol (IP) from a remote managing server. Thus to accomplish the network configuration of the agent terminal, and to allow a remote terminal to use the IP to manage the agent terminal via the managing server, or to utilize the managing server directly to execute a TCP/IP-based, remote network control procedure.
