NetWare is a network operating system that is introduced by Novell, specializes in transparent remote file access, and a large number of other distributed network services, including shared printers, supporting various applications, such as email transfer, and database access. NetWare specifies the top five layers of the OSI reference model and can run on any media access protocol (second layer). In addition, NetWare can run on a variety of computer systems such as personal computers to large machines. NetWare and its supported protocols typically coexist with other common protocols to the same physical channel, including TCP / IP, DECNET, and AppleTalk.
Novell NetWare has been proposed in 1980, which is based on the XNS: Xerox Network Systems Customer-Server Structure. The client (sometimes called a workstation) sends a service request to the server, such as accessing the file and printer. NetWare's client / server structure supports remote access services via remote program calls. When the local client program sends a call program request to the remote server, the remote program call process is implemented, and then the server executes the remote call, and returns the request information to the local client.
