NetWare 5 IP Core Protocol

One of the most significant new features of NetWare 5 is its support for Internet Protocol (IP) as a core protocol. In NetWare 5, all NetWare Core Protocols can use the TCP/IP transport protocol, giving customers the ability to run in a "Pure IP" environment--pure in the sense that it doesn't retain an IPX-based encapsulation (or, in the case of NT Server, a NetBIOS encapsulation). This allows you to select the protocol that best suits your needs. If you require IP, NetWare 5 will simplify your life by eliminating multiple protocols and freeing up valuable network bandwidth.
