Setting Up The Ethernet Connection
The connection between the PC (host) and an expansion box (client)
is based on the TCP/IP protocol provided by Windows 7. There are
two ways to connect a client to the host:
n Peer-to-peer connection (P2P)
The expansion box and the host PC are directly connected in a
peer-to-peer configuration, and neither the host nor the client is
connected to any other network.
n Integration in an existing network
The expansion box becomes part of an existing network using
TCP/IP, for example, a local area network.
