Title:Maximum Users for IBM PC Network (PCN)
The IBM PC Network (PCN) board has a hardware limitation of 32
users. Eventhough versions of NetWare will allow more than 32
users, one PCN board will notallow more than 32 users.
More than 32 users can be used in a PCN network in the following
ways:
1.If more than one server is used in a network (32 users perserver).
2.With the release of Advanced NetWare 2.0 and the introduction of
new bridging capabilities, a server can be a bridge to an additional
32 users by installing a second PCN board in it (total 64 users per
server). In addition each workstation can have a second PCN board
installed in it, which allows bridging to even more workstations.
Advanced NetWare 2.0 will allow up to 100 users perserver.
Workstations bridging from servers perform more efficiently that
workstations bridging from workstations.
