Windows Layering vs. TCP/IPOSI
• Clients and Services
– For file service
– Clients set up Windows to be a client for a
particular type of file server
– Services set up Windows to make a user’s PC
provide file and print services for other PCs on
the network
• Very limited; not for file servers on large PC
networks
Windows Layering vs. TCP/IPOSI
• Protocols
– Combination of transport and internet layer protocols
– TCP/IP is only one possibility
– IPX/SPX for Novell NetWare servers; Microsoft
sometimes calls this NW Link
– NetBEUI for some Microsoft servers on small PC
networks
Windows Layering vs. TCP/IPOSI
• Adapters
– Combination of data link layer and physical layer
protocols
– The subnet layers
– Dial-Up adapter sets up a modem and PPP
– Other “adapters,” including Ethernet for a network
interface card (NIC)
Bindings
• Bindings
– After add clients, services, protocols, and adapters,
must bind the combinations that will work together

Go to the Start Button
Choose Settings
Choose Control Panel
Double click the Network icon
This opens the Network Dialog Box
The Network Dialog Box
• Be sure the Configuration tab is selected
– You will see adapters, protocols, clients, and
services that have already been added
• Operations
– Add: To add an adapter, protocol, client, or service
– Remove: To remove one
– Properties: To see or change the properties of the
selected adapter, protocol, client, or service
The Network Dialog Box
• The Add Button
– Clicking the “Add” button takes you to the Select
Network Component Type dialog box
– Choose client, protocol, adapter, or service, then hit
Add
– Assume you chose “protocol” You then go to the
Select Network Protocol dialog box
– Other choices will take you to the relevant Select
Network … dialog box
The Network Dialog Box
• Select Network Protocol Dialog Box
– Click on a manufacturer to see the protocols it
offers; then click on the specific protocol
– Hit OK to add the protocol from files on your hard
drive or Have Disk if you have a disk containing the
protocol
– The selected protocol will be added
– The Select Network Client, Service, and Adapter
dialog boxes work the same way
The Network Dialog Box
• To configure a protocol after adding it
– Go to the Network Dialog Box
– Click on the target protocol, etc.
– Click on the Properties button below it
– A dialog box specific to that protocol, etc. will
appear
– This will allow you to configure the protocol, etc.
The TCP/IP Properties Box
• To configure TCP/IP
– Click on TCP/IP on the Configuration tab
of the Network Dialog Box
– Click on the Properties button below it
– This opens the TCP/IP Properties dialog
box
– The TCP/IP Properties dialog box has
multiple tabs
The TCP/IP Properties Box
• By default, the IP Address tab is shown
when you open the TCP/IP Properties
Dialog Box
• There are two radio buttons allowing you
to either
– “Specify an IP address” or
– “Obtain an IP address automatically”
The TCP/IP Properties Box
• “Specify an IP address”
– Type in your PC’s permanent IP address
– Type in your local subnet mask (discussed in
Chapter 3)
– Also, on other tabs, setup other parameters
• Gateway (default router)
• DNS Configuration
• Bindings
The TCP/IP Properties Box
• “Specify an IP address”
– Gateway: IP address router to send packets to if no
other router is specified; Gateway is the old name
for router
– DNS Configuration: Enable or disable DNS, enter
DNS host’s IP address and IP address of backup
DNS host
– Bindings: bindings between the TCP/IP protocol
and clients/services and adapters
The TCP/IP Properties Box
• “Obtain IP address automatically”
– Asks a DHCP autoconfiguration host for a
temporary IP address
– Also obtains most other configuration
information from the autoconfiguration host
as well
– Almost always the best choice for client PCs
