In the "Network Administrator's Guide" (part of the Linux Documentation
Project, can be browsed on sunsite.unc.edu or bought as a book frommm
O'Reilly and Associates.) Or in any decent book on TCP/IP.

Seriously: 
If you have an existing network, go ask the administrator.
If you don't, fill in 192.168.0.1 as IP address and default gateway,
255.255.255.0 as netmask. That'll do for the installation. Then you should
read about TCP/IP. It isn't really that hard, but too long to explain
here anyway.

Good luck and have fun,


Joost
