174 IBM ISDN PC Card:User’s Guide
If the Internet protocol (TCP/IP) is used as the transport protocol for Microsoft
networking, WINS and DHCP services can be installed on the Windows NT
server. These services manage and assign of NetBIOS names and IP addresses
where necessary. Neither service is absolutely essential, and both can be replaced
by using LMHOSTS files and fixed IP address configuration on the workstations.
Important WINS and DHCP configuration parameters are listed below:
• Install the WINS service on the RAS server or another server in the network
by clicking on Network -> Properties -> Services -> Add -> WINS Service.
Install WINS Service with WINS Manager.
• Install the DHCP service on the RAS server or another server in the network
by clicking on Network -> Properties -> Services -> Add -> DHCP server.
Install DHCP Service with DHCP Manager by clicking on Add Domain ->
Option Add Domain -> 003 router, 044 WINS/NBNS servers, 046
WINS/NBT node type.
The following configuration permits both DHCP and fixed IP addressing for RAS
clients:
• Network -> Services-> Remote Access Service -> Properties... -> Port ISDN1
-> Network -> TCP/IP -> Configure: Use DHCP, Allow remote clients to
request a predetermined IP address.
RAS Client with Windows 95 (Remote)

Notes on using the network protocol NetBEUI
NetBEUI is a broadcast-oriented network protocol which is not routable. This
means that its use in LANs and WANs is limited, but it is easy to configure in
Microsoft networks.
Windows NT Server (Central Site)
The following configuration installs NetBEUI for RAS clients:
• Network -> Services -> Remote Access Service -> Properties... -> Port
ISDN1 -> Network -> NetBEUI
RAS Client with Windows 95 (Remote)
• Network Setup: bind NetBEUI protocol (from Microsoft) to the Dial-Up
Adapter
• Dial-Up Networking: Server type -> Allowed network protocols: NetBEUI
