Installing and Configuring Network Protocols - Microsoft Windows 1002000 Professional [Electronic resources] نسخه متنی

Chapter 7

A protocol is a set of rules and conventions for sending information over a network. Microsoft Windows 2000 relies on TCP/IP for logon, file and print services, replication of information between one domain controller and another, and other common functions.

This chapter presents the skills and knowledge necessary to configure TCP/IP and to install other network protocols, including NWLink, NetBIOS Enhanced User Interface (NetBEUI), and Data Link Control (DLC). The chapter also discusses the process for configuring network bindings, which are links that enable communication between network adapter cards, protocols, and services.
