Setting up a Simple Network
This chapter describes how to set up a simple network of Profile XP systems. Procedures
are included for setting up the Windows NT network and both Profile video network
options.
Sections in the chapter include:
• About Profile Networking
• Setting up a simple Windows NT network
• Setting up a simple video network: Fibre Channel
• Setting up a simple video network: Ethernet
About Profile Networking
Profile XP network interfaces include a standard Ethernet interface and optional video
network interfaces which include a 1Gbs Fibre Channel interface and a 100BaseT
Ethernet interface. Both video network options require the Windows NT network
connection.
About Windows NT networking
All Profile XP systems include a 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface for Windows NT
networking. Connecting the Profile XP to a network not only gives you access to all the
standard Windows NT networking features, but also allows remote control and
monitoring of your Profile XP system using an NT Workstation running Profile
applications. The Windows NT Ethernet network connection is also required when using
either the Fibre Channel or Ethernet video network options. Refer to the procedures in
“Setting up a simple Windows NT network” on page 266, when you are ready to set up
the Windows NT network.
