OpenCom 510 in a Serverless LAN
Configuration Examples
RAS Access
You can establish a connection from
an external computer with an ISDN
card to the OpenCom 510. The nec-
essary TCP/IP settings are transmit-
ted by the OpenCom 510 on estab-
lishment of the connection. The
computer that has dialled in now
has access to all services in the LAN
capable of being used via TCP/IP. The
authorisation for RAS access is set up
in the
Configurator
via the
User
Manager: User Groups
menu.
In a serverless LAN, Windows uses
the NetBIOS protocol for accessing
files and printers via the network en-
vironment. NetBIOS can use Net-
BEUI, IPX/SPX or TCP/IP as the trans-
port protocol. In the network
environment, you can only access
files and printers on workstations us-
ing TCP/IP for NetBIOS.
Note:
In a serverless LAN, the work-
stations running decide independ-
ently which one is to keep the list of
names visible in the network environ-
ment. This process is triggered by
broadcasts, which can take some time
on a RAS connection. You can shorten
this period by activating the “Find >
Computer” function in the Start menu
and selecting the client computer.
