I connected two iMacs with a LAN cable to share one external hard drive between the two iMacs.
I thought that to connect Macs with a LAN cable, I would need to manually assign IP addresses from the network settings.
When I actually tried it, just connecting the LAN cable automatically assigned IPs using a DHCP server, which was very convenient.
To connect a MacBook Air and iMac, you just need to connect them using a Gigabit Ethernet adapter.
That’s all from the Gemba.
