How Do I Know How Compression Is Progressing?

Answer»

Use the CONSOLE COMMAND

SET COMPRESS SCREEN=ON

This creates a new screen which shows compression as it takes place. The first field shows the file being processed (an asterisk means decompression). The second field shows the compression ratio. The third and fourth fields are bytes/sec in and out. The FIFTH field is the COMPRESSED size, and the sixth field is the original size. The final group of five numbers are debug values having to do with how the file was compressed, whether the file could be compressed, etc.

How Can I Minimise Network Traffic Across Wan Links?

Answer»

In a NetWare 4 environment, WAN traffic can be seen from the following sources :

  1. Time synchronisation.
  2. NDS.
  3. SAP/RIP.

Traffic from each of these sources MAY be reduced in the following ways. 

Time Synchronisation : The following two SET parameters may be adjusted to change the frequency (number) and polling interval (SECONDS) for time synchronisation polling :

    • TIMESYNC Polling Count = number (DEFAULT 3) (Decrease this figure) 
    • TIMESYNC Polling Interval = seconds (default 600) (Increase this figure) 

NDS : NDS traffic may be reduced by using the DS Filter program,which allows setting of the periods during which synchronisation may take place. Using this program, NDS synchronisation will only occur at certain times of the day. DS Filter NLMs are available as part of the Novell Multi Protocol Router (MPR) 3.0 product, or on the Novell Consulting Toolkit.

Additionally, it is possible to change the SET parameter : NDS inactivity synchronization interval = minutes (default 30) to increase the time between periods when a synchronisation attempt takes place, if no other activity has been seen during this time. This is of particular interest on ISDN (and other switched) connections where frequent activation of the line might be undesirable. 

SAP/RIP :  SAP (Service Advertising Protocol) and RIP (Routing INFORMATION Protocol) traffic may be reduced by the use of a filtering program included with NetWare 4.0x and 4.1. This program can be used on servers which are acting as routers WITHIN the network.If servers are not acting as routers, it is suggested that the filtering facilities as provided by the third-party router are used instead.

How Do I Manage File Rights On A Netware 3.x Server Running Netsync?

Answer»

Assigning File Rights With NetSync : 

Administration of NetSync should be done using the NetWare 4.10 utilities Filer or NWAdmin and not the Syscon utility.Changes made in Syscon will not be updated in the binderies on other NetWare 3.x servers. To use NWAdmin to administer file rights for the NetWare 3.x servers you must PROCEED as FOLLOWS:

  • Create a server object for the 3.x server using NWAdmin. Do NOT delete the server bindery object that was created when NetSync was installed.
  • Create VOLUME objects for each volume that resides on the 3.x server. You can now double-click on the volume object to display the file structure of the volume.
  •  HIGHLIGHT the directory to which you want to MODIFY rights and enter the "Details" menu. Rights can now be modified in the "Trustees of this Directory" menu.
  •  Rights for NetSync cannot be modified from the user object.

Explain About Modulation?

Answer»

Modulation :- It is a process with which original SIGNAL is transmitted over a carrier wave with the fixed amplitude or frequency. Carrier wave is a signal, which is used for trans of audio or video. Mainly these signals are trans over telephone lines. Two basic operations are performed by the Modem :

  1. Conversion of data from digital to analog form
  2. Conversion of data from analog to digital form

Modulation is classified into :

  1. Amplitude : In this technique, amplitude of the carrier wave is constant from SOURCE to destination to avoid attenuation of a signal. Amplitude is voltage between 2 consecutive peaks. It is peak-to-peak voltage.
  2. Frequency : In this, frequency of the carrier wave is constant from source to destination in order to maintain speed of trans. It is no of cycles PER second. It is calculated in TERMS of wavelength (LAMDA). Wavelength is the distance between 2 consecutive peaks. Frequency & wavelength are inversely promotional to wavelength.
  3. Phase modulation : In this technique amplitude as well as frequency of carrier wave is constant from source to destination. Phase Modulation is also called as Shift Key.

Explain Ipx Frame Format / Ipx Packet Format?

Answer»
  1. Checksum : It is 2 bytes long & it is many TIMES ignored by IPX.
  2. Length of Packet : It is 2 bytes long, which gives idea about no. of bytes available in a particular Packet.
  3. Packet Control : It is 1 byte long & gives idea about no. of n/w that are traveled by Packet.
  4. Packet Type : This field is used to distinguish between Control Packet & Data Packet. If first bit of Packet is 0 then it represents Control Packet & if it is 1 then it represents Data Packet. Control Packets are generated for maintenance of n/w.
  5. Destination Address : It is 12 Bytes long. Out of 96 bits first 32 bytes are n/w no, next 48 Bits represents Machine No. & last 16 bits represents Port / SOCKET Port i.e. LOCAL address of the Machine.
  6. Source Address : It is also 12 Bytes long as Destination Address.

Explain Ipx Reference Model?

Answer»

IPX Reference Model :

Physical Layer : It is related to the selection of n/w (LAN) depending on components of n/w. It selects Ethernet/Arch net/Token Ring for INSTALLATION.

Datalink Layer : Depending on the type of NIC selected at Physical Layer. Datalink selects IEEE frame format i.e. for Ethernet it selects IEEE 802.3. Datalink Layer combines with Physical Layer in ORDER to form Host to n/w layer

Network Layer : It is based on only IPX Protocol.

TRANSPORT Layer : Like TCP/IP this layer is based on 2 end to end Protocols NCP & SPX.

Application Layer : It is related to the end users such as SAP users & File Server Users. SAP users selects SPX for data trans because it is mainly used for multimedia applications. File Server users selects NCP for data trans as it is related to File Transfer Protocol (FTP).

Explain Netware Workstation Installation?

Answer»

Netware Workstation Installation :

Non-Dedicated w/s :

It is w/s same as stand-alone machine. This w/s consist of its own HDD & it is partially depend on Server Procedure :

  1. Reboot the system from A drive. Min DOS version MUST be COMPATIBLE with Netware with this command.com is loaded by w/s.
  2. INSERT w/s installation disk in drive & type A:> IPX.COM. When IPX is loaded it will configure address for the w/s.
  3. Type A:>NETX.COM with which latest version of Netware is loaded by w/s with the server if version at Netware w/s matches with the server it displays F prompt.

Dedicated Workstation :

These are diskless w/s, which are totally DEPENDANT on server for booting process. Procedure :

  1. Insert Boot ROM Chip into the NIC of w/s.
  2. Switch on w/s with this NET$DOS.SYS file gets executed from w/s. It also called as Netware Shell. It acts as interface between DOS & Netware. NOTHING but it intersects DOS with Netware. Whenever commands are related with DOS then these commands are executed from w/s & if commands are related with Netware, it executed under Netware Environment. This file is basically used to distinguish between DOS & Netware e.g. Setpass executed from w/s & Attached directed to the Server.

Can I Use Arcnet With My Novell Netware 4.11?

Answer»

Server: Novell does not support ARCNET adapters at the FILE server as of NETWARE 4.11.

Client: 16-bit ARCNET drivers are supported by NetWare 4.11's Client 32. 32-bit ARCNET drivers are not supported.

In order to get ARCNET clients under Novell connected to a NetWare 4.11 file server, you need to have an IPX PROTOCOL router between the clients that use ARCNET and the ETHERNET file server.
