configure
Adjust system settings
Configure means to arrange or set up according to specific requirements.
The word appears most often in technical contexts—you configure software settings, configure a computer network, or configure a device before first use.
The underlying sense is adjusting components or options to work together properly: I need to configure the router before we can get online.
Configuration is the noun for either the process or the resulting arrangement.
