<p/>NetBEUI is a protocol developed for LANs with 20-200 computers. However, while NetBEUI is a small, fast, and efficient protocol, it isn't routable and therefore is unsuitable for use in a WAN environment.<p/><A NAME="269"><H3>NetBEUI Capabilities</H3></A>
<p/>NetBEUI provides compatibility with existing LANs that use the NetBEUI protocol. NetBEUI provides computers running Windows 2000 with the following capabilities:<p/><ul>
<p/><li>Connection-oriented and connectionless communication between computers</li><p/><li>Self-configuration and self-tuning</li><p/><li>Error protection</li><p/><li>Small memory overhead</li><p/></ul>

<p/>The Network Monitor driver on a Windows 2000-based computer collects and displays statistics about activity detected by the network card in the computer.

<p/>In this lesson, you learned that Windows 2000 supports protocols besides TCP/IP and NWLink. These other protocols include NetBEUI, DLC, AppleTalk, and the Network Monitor driver 2. NetBEUI is a protocol developed for LANs with 20-200 computers. It is a small, fast, and efficient protocol, but it isn't routable and therefore is unsuitable for use in a WAN environment. NetBEUI provides compatibility with existing LANs that use the NetBEUI protocol. DLC is a special-purpose, nonroutable protocol that enables computers running Windows 2000 to communicate with other computers running the DLC protocol stack, such as IBM mainframes.

NetBEUI provides compatibility with existing LANs that use the NetBEUI protocol. NetBEUI provides computers running Windows 2000 with the following capabilities:
Connection-oriented and connectionless communication between computers
NetBEUI also has a number of limitations. NetBEUI is
Designed for department-sized LANs.
Nonroutable. Because of this limitation, you must connect computers running Windows 2000 and NetBEUI by using bridges instead of routers.
Broadcast-based. NetBEUI protocol relies on broadcasts for many of its functions, such as name registration and discovery, which creates more broadcast traffic than other protocols.

NOTEYou must install the DLC protocol on the print server for the print device. Computers sending print jobs to the print server don't require DLC.
