  NetBEUI   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The NetBEUI protocol is primarily used by Microsoft Networks for communication on a small network.
The NetBEUI protocol is relatively limited with regard to its uses and may not be able to communicate with devices outside of your departmental LAN.
NetBEUI is installed by default when you add the Client for Microsoft Networks.

 Microsoft NetBEUI
Because NetBEUI was developed for an earlier generation of DOS-based PCs, it is small, easy to install, easy to implement, and very fast -- the fastest available protocol in Microsoft Networks and it is supplied with all Microsoft's network products.
For instance, you could use NetBEUI for fast, efficient communication on the LAN segment and use TCP/IP for transmissions that require routing.
As mentioned in Introduction, it's one of the advantages of NetBEUI that it is very easy to install, it doesn't need any configuration, which is a major problem in Routable-protocols such as TCP/IP.

 Protocol: NetBEUI ( NetBIOS Extended User Interface )
When NetBEUI was developed in 1985, it was assumed that LANs would be segmented into workgroups of 20 to 200 computers and that gateways would be used to connect that LAN segment to other LAN segments or a mainframe.
NetBEUI does not have the type of addressing that allows packet forwarding on routed networks, but the Netbios interface is adaptable to other protocols which are, such as IPX and TCP/IP.
Because NetBEUI is very fast for small LAN communications but provides poorer performance for WAN communications, one recommended method for setting up a network is to use both NetBEUI and another protocol, such as TCP/IP, on each computer that may need to access computers across a router or on a WAN.

 NetBIOS protocol, netbeui over TCP, server message blocks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
NetBEUI was designed by IBM in 1985 as the network protocol which completes the requirements to transport NetBIOS using IBMs LAN Manager server.
NetBEUI is very fast but also very bandwidth hungry since stations seeking each other broadcast their requests very frequently.
NetBEUI has traditionally been the default configuration for SMB devices because it is very easy to set up, however it is not scalable because NetBEUI cannot be routed, being only an LLC2 protocol, it can only be bridged.

 NetBEUI: NetBIOS Extended User Interface or NetBIOS Frame Protocol
NetBEUI formalizes the frame format that was not specified as part of NetBIOS.
Very often, both NetBEUI and TCP/IP are installed in each computer and the server is set up to use NetBEUI for communication within the LAN and TCP/IP for communication beyond the LAN.
NetBIOS and NetBEUI were developed by IBM for its LAN Manager product and has been adopted by Microsoft for its Windows NT, XP and 2000, LAN Manager, and Windows for Workgroups products.

 CertiGuide to Network+ - V  NetBEUI
Before examining the details of NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) and what it is, take a moment to be clear what it is not.
NetBEUI is a transport protocol for carrying data, while NetBIOS is a session layer service that broadcasts computer names.
Since NetBEUI is predominantly a Microsoft Windows protocol, you should carefully research support for this protocol on the other types of systems in your network if you plan to deploy it and want to communicate with non-Windows machines using it.

NetBEUI will be bound by default to the the LAN adapter if no other adapters are installed.
NetBEUI may be bound to other adapters if they are installed as illustrated in the binding tree below.
Since NetBEUI will not operate over Dial-Up and Cable/DSL adapters should not be bound to them.

 Dr. Dobb's | Network Communications Using the NetBEUI Protocol | July 22, 2001
NetBEUI is the native network protocol for Windows NT Version 3.1 and allows the operating system to communicate with other NT machines, as well as machines running Windows for Workgroups.
NT uses NetBEUI internally to handle such things as disk and printer sharing over the network and also supports NetBEUI directly in the Win32 API, so that application developers can employ network communications in their own programs.
Because the Win32 API directly supports NetBEUI, it is remarkably easy to create applications that use the network in many different ways.

 Windows NT Protocols
NetBEUI was by far the fastest NT protocol available until Microsoft released NT 3.51.
NetBEUI is a good choice for DOS clients, because it requires minimal system memory.
One of NetBEUI's disadvantages is that it lacks routing capability (which might be an advantage if you want to isolate traffic on a network segment).

 NetBEUI support in Windows XP
NetBEUI have it's limitations that's for sure, but for a home network it works very nice.
NetBEUI is faster than than TCP/IP and IPX/SPX in MS OSes.
NetBEUI is not routable, so the traffic can't go anywhere other than your small network.

 Netbeui - ieXbeta Board
While emphasizing that Microsoft doesn't support the use of NetBEUI under Windows XP, he agreed that it was perfectly possible to use it, and even conceded that the Windows 2000 version of NetBEUI could, in fact, work better than the legacy version shipped in a folder on the Windows XP CD.
Since I started the NetBEUI series, SFNL readers Alexander Bunakov, Mark Worden, and one or two others have written to me about the problem that NetBEUI has with computers that use hibernation or standby mode.
If NetBEUI is the only protocol being used to connect PCs on the network (and that's the recommended configuration for security purposes), then computers coming out of hibernation/standby may frequently or always lose their network connection, requiring a reboot to be connected.

 NetBIOS/NetBEUI (Linktionary term)
NetBEUI talks directly to NDIS in the MAC layer, bypassing any internetworking functions, and so is not a routable protocol.
IBM used NetBEUI in its LAN Manager Server and Microsoft later adopted it as a LAN networking protocol.
NetBIOS and NetBEUI are still included in Windows products and some network administrators may find them useful in the small LAN environment.

 Should I use NetBeui?
NetBEUI is an enhanced version of the NetBios protocol that is used by Microsoft Windows networking.
If this is your situation and you must share Files and Printers, then you definitely should use NetBEUI for File and Printer sharing, and have strong password protection on anything you share.
In this case, you should use NetBEUI for File and Printer sharing.

 How do I install additional network protocols like IPX or Netbeui? - Ask Leo!
Protocols like IXP/SPX and Netbeui are less efficient, and even somewhat less secure, than TCP/IP, but on a small network that may simply not be an issue.
Now you'll note that Netbeui was not one of the options.
That's because technically Netbeui is no longer a supported protocol by Microsoft.

 Removing NetBEUI and setting up WINS for NT 4.0 WORKSTATION/SERVER   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The design objective for NetBEUI was to provide a small and efficient communications program optimized to run on a departmental LAN of 200+ or fewer computers.
This can be problematic because broadcast/multicast information must be received and processed by every computer on the same physical network (whether the information is useful or not), potentially stealing processor resources unnecessarily.
Second, NetBEUI cannot be supported on the new, emerging campus backbone called VENUS (Virtual Electronic Network for University Services).

 NetBEUI Sharing in WinXP.
NetBEUI has less overhead, so it is very efficient in small networks (less then 10 computers), and it is actually faster then TCP/IP.
After Installing, NetBEUI appears in the list of available protocols, there in no properties for NetBEUI since there is nothing to configure.
NetBEUI has to be in first position in both settings, to be Default Protocol.

 Scot's Newsletter - By Scot Finnie - 01-21-2003   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
What I found is that the way you install NetBEUI -- as well as how you uninstall a previous version of it before installing it a different version -- makes all the difference as to whether it will work properly or not.
In case you're wondering: It has become clear to me that the Windows 2000 version of NetBEUI is preferable to the version included on the Windowx XP retail disc.
How to install and use the NetBEUI protocol found on the Windows XP disc is the subject of an earlier Scot’s Newsletter tip.

 How to make NetBEUI your Default Protocol
Either use the instructions for disabling NetBEUI on the SACS security key, or contact your system administrator to help add NetBEUI on your computer.
Important: The NetBEUI protocol that you just highlighted must be running on an adapter that is ALWAYS physically present.
For laptops, if your NetBEUI is running on a PCMCIA card, that card must always be inserted into the computer.

 Using NetBEUI with Windows NT
Chapter 13 - Using NetBEUI with Windows NT The NetBEUI protocol was one of the earliest protocols available for use on networks composed of personal computers.
NetBEUI was designed as a small, efficient protocol for use in department-sized local area networks (LANs) of 20 to 200 computers that do not need to be routed to other subnets.
This chapter describes Windows NT-based NetBEUI and how it interfaces with the architecture of Windows NT Server and Windows NT Workstation to support connection-oriented and connectionless data transfer and to support a virtually infinite number of network sessions (logical connections between networked computers).

 myITforum.com : Running Windows XP and still need NETBEUI support
NetBEUI is unsupported in Windows XP but it can be installed if you still need this older protocol during migration to Windows XP on older networks and workgroups.
The files necessary for installing the NetBEUI protocol on Windows XP are Netnbf.inf and Nbf.sys.
The NetBEUI protocol should now be installed and working.

 Annoyances.org - Netbeui (Windows XP Discussion Forum)
I think the need for Netbeui is overrated.
I haven't been using it for over two years, and I'm networking WIN95, 98 and XP machines, as well as Direct Cable Connection.
I know that many folks embrace the supposed need or Netbeui with religious fervor, and perhaps it does make networking easier, but I don't think it's needed if you have TCP/IP properly loaded.

 NetBios NetBEUI NBF Networking Introduction
As mentioned above, and described in the history, when IBM developed Token Ring it was continuity of the API to ensure applications would continue to function which was important.
With the development of NetBEUI, a set of protocols was developed, now know as the NetBIOS Frames Protocol.
Since the NetBIOS Frames Protocol was used with the NetBEUI API it became accepted practice to refer to these protocols as the "NetBEUI protocol".
