Chapter 5
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.
