Network Communications

This chapter provides information about networks and the hardware connectors and software device drivers that allow you to access a network. Once your network connection is active, you can share resources such as a printer, exchange information from device to device, and run common software programs.

NOTE: For more information on networking, refer to the Software Installation

Guide.

Your workstation comes Ethernet network ready, which means that it has a preinstalled network controller and preinstalled network drivers. The Compaq NC3121 Fast Ethernet Network Interface Controller (10/100 Mb/s Auto- sensing Ethernet controller) PCI card with Wake-on-LAN is a PCI bus mastering, dual speed 10BaseT, and 100BaseTX controller that will automatically detect network connection speed and adjust accordingly.

NOTE: Your workstation is also Token Ring Network capable. To connect to a

Token Ring Network, you must install a Token Ring board.
