minimum required for the terminal to function. The resources in this category use
the following network protocols:
and may use the following serial line protocols:
This chapter provides a brief description of where the above-listed protocols are

Network Services
Network services are software resources available on servers for terminals’ use.
Network services include:
• An additional set of software for use by diagnosticians in both network- and
local-boot configurations.
• An additional set of fonts for use with the applications.
• The ability to load very large objects (e.g., from the Web) onto your terminal by
making a swap area available on the network.
• The ability to print large objects by spooling them to a network file rather than
keeping them in memory while printing and/or being sent to the printer server (or
local printer).
