b. Select a Network Driver.
Select one of the available Network Drivers that
are displayed in the Network Drivers field. Once
selected, the Network Driver will assign a network
address to the system.
Notes:
(1) The fields that appear beneath the Driver
Enabled check box will change depending
on which Network Driver has been selected.
(2) When enabling the IPX or TCP/IP Network
Driver, the network address cannot be
altered, and it will not appear on the screen.
No field will appear beneath the Driver
Enabled check box if the IPX or TCP/IP Net-
work Driver is selected.
(3) When enabling the NetBIOS Network Driver,
a network address will be selected and dis-
played in the Network Address field. To
change this default name, enter any 1–8
character address. However, this address
must be unique to the system. If this Net-
BIOS address is identical to the NetBIOS
address of another system on the network, it
will prevent Netfinity Manager from starting
properly.

driver, type a name that will be used to iden-
tify the system in the Unique Machine Dia-
lup Name field. This name can be up to 32

system. If this name is not unique, it can pre-
vent remote Netfinity Manager users from
using the Serial Connection Control service
to access the system.

Keywords fields.
