Do you mean you want the Mac to have a static IP? All my machines have 
static addresses on my LAN. I never changed any of the computer settings 
at all, instead I changed the router. Routers allow you to link a MAC 
address with a static IP, and after that the router will reserve that IP 
and assign it only to that machine.
