Network Client Configuration



As a practical example, the following steps should be taken to configure a Windows 2000 client to connect to a network208. First, the appropriate network interface card (NIC) driver needs to be installed. It is quite likely that Windows has already detected and installed drivers for your card, however this can be confirmed by right clicking My Computer, selecting Properties, choosing the Hardware tab and clicking the Device Manager button. If your network card has been installed successfully, you should see something similar to Figure 429.


Figure 429: Successfully Installed Network Interface Card (NIC)

 

Your network card will be listed under the Network Adapters section. If you cannot see your card listed here (or it appears in an error state), ensure that the correct drivers are installed. The Add/Remove Hardware wizard in Control Panel will allow you to do this.

Once your network card is visible in Device Manager, you can proceed to configure it. First open Network and Dial Up connection using the icon in Control Panel, and locate the network connection Windows created for you when your network card was installed:
