Net2Com and RAS Can Conflict on LANA Number

MORE INFORMATION

LANA is a number given to a specific path from the application layer through a protocol stack, to a specific network card.

To check what LANA number a protocol is using:

1. In the Control Panel window, choose the Network icon.
2. From the Installed Network Software list box, choose NetBIOS Interface, and then choose the Configure button.
3. The NetBIOS Interface dialog box displays the Network Route and the LANA Number. Please note:
   
   

         NBF is NetBEUI
         NBT is NetBIOS over TCP/IP
         NWBLINK is NetBIOS over IPX
         RASHub is a RAS link

4. Make sure that the Network Route for RAS is not set to LANA 0. To ensure connection between the workstation and the server, it is important that LANA 0 on both computers use the same networking protocol (NetBEUI, TCP/IP, IPX, and so on).
