Installation
The NIC provides an RJ-45 connector for 10/100Base-T (UTP)
networks.
Connecting To The Network
To attach the NIC to a network, plug the network cable into the NIC
connector.
Configuration Tools
There are two parts to a NIC setup:
• Configuring the NIC so it can be seen on the network. This
involves network-related settings (e.g., an IP address within
TCP/IP environments) configured through the built-in command
shell, npsh, or from the control panel.
• Configuring a host with a new printer so it knows how to send
data to the NIC. Just being able to see the printer on the
network does not mean you can automatically print to it. A host
has to be told where to send the data.
NOTE: Some network environments do not require any network
settings to be configured on the NIC. However, all network
setups require configuration on the host end.
