Windows Terminal Server, Windows Cluster Server, and Citrix Terminal server
technology allows as many as 128 devices or terminals to share the resources
dynamically on a terminal server. A terminal server eliminates the need for modems,
network interface cards, applications, or complete operating systems on the terminals.
Terminals can include personal computers, so-called dumb terminals, printers, and other
devices. Terminal clients connect to the terminal server through Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Citrix Metaframe supports connection through TCP/
IP, NETBIOS Extended User Interface (NetBEUI), Internetwork Packet Exchange/
Sequenced Packet Exchange (IPX/SPX), and asynchronous modem connections. In turn,
the terminal server connects to a local area network (LAN) through a network interface
card. For information (including a list of supported printers, recommendations for installing
printer drivers, a description of terminal server configurations, differences between
terminal server versions, and differences between remote client operating systems) about
supported printers and driver versions, visit the Web site at the following URL:
