How to configure an M1 pattern workstation/Windows 2000/XP
Generally, computers that use Windows 2000/XP as operating system are connected by LAN (local area network).
You can configure multiple LAN adapters with the menu option. You can determine the order in which the adapters will be used for a connection, as well as the clients, services and protocols for the adapter. You can also change the sequence of providers that with the connection allow you to access information in the network (e.g. networks or printers).
You can use the menu option to configure the device that is used for a connection, as well as all clients, services and protocols for the relevant connection.
You can use Clients to define access, via this connection, to computers and data files in the network.
These services include data file, printer release etc.
Such protocols as TCP/IP define the language the computers use to communicate with each other.
The TCP/IP icon is displayed in the Network and Dial-Up Connections directory. Its appearance varies according to the status of the local connection:
