Xerox 4500 PS TR instruction manual NetBEUI/NetBios protocol, Ida 802.2 protocol

Introduction

Xerox 4500 PS TR

The following TCP/IP protocols are supported by the Xerox 4500 PS TR:

Supported TCP/IP Protocols
IP Layer	Internet Layer
IP (RFC 791)	Internet Protocol
ARP (RFC 826)	Address Resolution Protocol
TCP Layer	Transport Layer
TCP (RFC 793)	Transmission Control Protocol
UDP (RFC 768)	User Datagram Protocol
ICMP	Internet Control Message Protocol
Application Layer
Bootp (RFC 951,1048 and 1084)	Bootstrap Protocol
LPD (RFC 1179)	Line Printer Daemon
SNMP (RFC 1157)
SNMP - MIB II (RFC 1213)

NOTE:

If you do not have TCP/IP on the host, redirected printing can be performed using the ida ReRouter. For details on redirected printing, see the separate document included on the diskette “Redirected SNA AFP Printing - Token Ring”.

1.1.3 NetBEUI/NetBios protocol

With support for the NetBeui/NetBios network protocols, the Xerox 4500 PS TR enables printing from Microsoft (Windows 95 and NT) and IBM LAN network (OS/2) environments using the SMB (Server Message Block) printer protocol. As default the NetBEUI/NetBios protocol will be enabled and as such is ready to print using the default values.

1.1.4 ida 802.2 protocol

Native data is sent via the LPT monitor program idaMON, and IPDS data is sent via the IPDS redirecter program idaIPPC.

idaMON

idaMON is a background monitor program which communicates with the Xerox 4500 PS TR on the Token Ring and with the configuration program idaPMUTL redirecting LPT print to the Xerox 4500 PS TR.

idaIPPC

The idaIPPC is an OS/2 based redirecter included with the Xerox 4500 PS TR kit which functions as a bridge between the Host and the Xerox 4500 PS TR.

For details on redirected printing, see the separate document included on the diskette “Redirected SNA AFP Printing - Token Ring”.
