How it Works
The Axis CD-ROM server is connected as a node in an Ethernet
network, or as a station in a Token Ring network. In the network it
acts as a file server. To your computer the Axis CD-ROM Server
appears as any other file server and it is accessed using the standard
commands used in your network operating system.
Where to Use it
The Axis CD-ROM servers can be used simultaneously from
Windows, OS/2, DOS and UNIX systems. They support IPX/NCP,
SMB over NetBIOS/NetBEUI, SMB over NetBIOS/TCP/IP and
NFS.
In the NetWare
Environment

a Novell File Server running NetWare
3.x.
With the Microsoft and
IBM network operating
systems
The CD-ROM server is
easily accessed using the
SMB protocol.
In the UNIX
environment

is mounted using NFS.
