The ODI driver program allows you to run multiple protocol stacks and install
up to two network adapters in a workstation. This ODI driver supports the Port,
Node Address, Protocol and Frame options for creating your own NET.CFG file.

C:\NWCLIENT
A message appears on the screen asking you whether or not you want the
program to perform modifications on your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files.

accordingly and creates backup copies.
The following message appears:
