I am glad to see there is no stupid-simple solution that I was simply unaware 
of.
I think I will re-create the scripts and icons.  
They were simple and worked well.  Just took a bit of study to create them in 
the first place.

Multiple NICs? Maybe get a USB ethernet dongle for the laptop. Also, if you can 
access your internal networks via WiFi, that would fix that issue. Of course, 
this all assumes that your various IP subnets don't conflict or overlap in any 
way.

  I feel silly asking this but I honestly don’t know if there is a better way.

  Willing to risk the embarrassment of a simple answer.  



  Frequently plugging a laptop into a management port or something.  
192.168.1.1  So I need to set the laptop IP manually to 192.168.1.11 or some 
such thing.

  Then I find I immediately need to connect to some DHCP device and right back 
to the management port.  And then to perhaps check email I need to go to a 
10.x.x.x or a 172 subnet internally.    



  Once upon a time I wrote some scripts and associated them with icons to 
reconfig the ethernet IPV4 settings to various things I need to access from 
time to time.  

  Is there a better way where I will never have to change configs?
