NETWORK CONNECTIVITY COMPONENTS
Transport Support
PATHWORKS 32 software includes networking trans-
ports developed by HP for the PC. They are imple-
mented as 32-bit, protected-mode drivers. The following
transports provide connectivity to other systems sup-
porting the same transport:
• DECnet Phase IV, a local area and wide area trans-
port — including support for DECnet over TCP/IP and
support for WinSock 2.
• LAT, Telnet, and CTERM communications transports
for use with terminal emulators.
DECnet Management
PATHWORKS 32 software supports the Network Control
Program (NCP) — a utility that manages DECnet and
displays information about network conditions, charac-
teristics, and performance.
PATHWORKS 32 software provides property pages
that support the management of the DECnet transport
through the Windows interface.
