6.1.2 Networking And Feature Licensed Options Configurations
Windows NT has many standard network protocols built-in. Examples include NetBEUI (NetBIOS extended user
interface), TCP/IP (transmission control protocol/internet protocol), and NWLink (Novell Netware Link). Network protocol
software is always available even if the PC is not going to be used on a network and even if the PC does not have a network
interface card installed within it. Certain TCP/IP-related configurations must be accomplished before the console’s feature
licensed options will operate, even if the PC does not have a network interface card installed within it. See the subsections
which follow for additional details.
6.1.2.1 TCP/IP-Related Configurations With Network Interface Card
If a network interface card is installed or will be installed within the PC, the following information must be available for
proper configuration. Typically, this information is supplied to Windows NT during its installation:
•
network card’s name and type (for example: 3COM 509B Etherlink III)
•
network card’s interrupt (IRQ) and I/O base address setting (for example: IRQ 10, address 300)
