NIC
Be it notebook or desktop PC, nothing
talks without a Network Interface Card (NIC). As with
virtually every expansion card in a PC, the NIC needs an I/O address
and IRQ to interface. While today, Plug and Play makes that assignment
automagic; one area that may need your manual attention is the driver.
Updating drivers when upgrading an Operating System with a Service Pak
is common.
As you may have figured out by now
it is the actual NIC that gets the IP address that we discussed earlier
in this chapter. However, the IP address gets a close association with
an identity that is ingrained into the cards creation as part of creating
a network.
