NetBEUI Configuration

NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) is the Microsoft Windows networking interface standard for Windows 95 and 98, Workgroups, Microsoft LAN Manager and MS-DOS’s Workgroup add-on). On a Windows 95 or 98 system, NetBEUI installs using the procedure later in this section. Configuration consists of simply setting the computer name and a workgroup or domain name.

Note: A NetBEUI setup is limited to 25 or fewer users.

NetBEUI features fast communication, self-tuning performance, low overhead, and very little configuration. However, it is not routable.

NetBEUI Constraints

When you work with your XANTÉ printer and NetBEUI, you need to keep the following constraints in mind.
