!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] or Novell Directory Access Protocol, is built on top of [NCP] (NetWare Core Protocol).
Like [NCP], and [LDAP], [{$pagename}] is a request-reply protocol, but unlike [NCP], [{$pagename}] is a messaging protocol.
Since an [NDS] request or reply can be larger than a single packet, NDS messages can be fragmented across multiple packets and reassembled by NDS before NDS hands the message to the NDS agent for processing.
[NCP] is not a transport protocol, and thus it relies on other protocols to transport packets on the wire. Since [{$pagename}] is built on top of NCP, any transport protocol supported by NCP is automatically supported by NDAP.
In NetWare 4.x, NCP supports [Internet Protocol Exchange|Internetwork Packet Exchange]™ and IPX encapsulated by IP (called NetWare/IP™) as its transport protocols.
In NetWare 5.x, NCP supports IPX and IP as its transport protocol; the NetWare server can be configured to support IPX/SPX, TCP/IP, or both.
NDS 8 on NT, Solaris and later versions referred to as [EDirectory] use TCP/IP as the transport protocol since TCP/IP is their native supported transport protocol.
