Transfer files using a direct Ethernet connection
Authored by: Fuuga on Apr 15, '09 11:57:40AM

No to disregard the hint just to say computer having an IP stack but no DHCP service is available or no static IP has assigned, protocol assigns so called Local-ilnk address (RFC 3330, 3927). When connected to another similar with direct cable both ends have local-link address and communication succeeds.
