Chapter 6 Configuration Network
Windows Network (NetBIOS TCP/IP)
TCP/IP is used for Windows (i.e. Windows NT, Windows 95, and Windows for
Workgroups) printing unless another protocol like IPX is available. Therefore,
mandatory TCP/IP settings (i.e. IP address and subnet mask) are necessary
on the NIC. Go to "TCP/IP Network" on this form to fill in these settings if you
have not done so already.
Workgroup Name
This name specifies which Windows workgroup the NIC resides.
Novell Network
Protocol
Defines the packet structure of transmitted data or the control commands that
manage the session, or both.
FrameType
This option determines which framing scheme will be used in processing
Novell signals. The different types of Ethernet packet formats include:
• Auto Sensing
• Ethernet II
• Ethernet 802.3
• Ethernet 802.2 (the default)
• 802.2 Snap
Service Type
Allows you to change the Nest Server. The options are:
• Binary
• NDS
• Auto
File Server
Define a Novell file server for the NIC to service as either a PSERVER or an
RPRINTER.
NDS
NDS (Novell Directory Services) is a distributed database of network
information. An NDS contains information that defines every object on the
network. For more information please see your Novell administrator.
