NetBEUI Protocol

NetBEUI is a protocol that was designed for use on small workgroups or LANs. Within Windows, NetBEUI is used for file and printer sharing between computers. It provides a simple method of printing but the protocol does have limitations and is not as robust as TCP/IP or IPX. Typically it is employed in small or home networks.
