   Server Driver for NetWare 3.12

   Introduction:
   -------------
   This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare v3.12
   server driver for CNet PowerNIC 650Eplus PNP Ethernet Adapter.

   Location of Driver:     \NETWARE\SERVER\312\CN650EP.LAN


   Installation Procedure:
   -----------------------
      Before you start with the installation  process,  make sure that
      the Novell NetWare v3.12 server is properly installed.
      Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your
      server.

      1. These files can be obtained from CNet driver diskette subdirectory
         A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312

         MSM31X.NLM
         ETHERTSM.NLM
         CN650EP.LAN

      2. Copy the CN650EP.LAN file into the subdirectory of your server.
         For example:

        > copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312\CN650EP.LAN  C:\NWSERVER

        ; if C:\NWSERVER is the server subdirectory
        
      3. Copy the follwing NLM files into your server directory and rename
         MSM31X.NLM to MSM.NLM.
         
        > copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312\MSM31X.NLM    C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
        > copy A:\NETWARE\SERVER\312\ETHERTSM.NLM  C:\NWSERVER

      4. Run SERVER.EXE on the server.

      5. At the NetWare prompt, enter "Load Install" to edit the
        AUTOEXEC.NCF file.

        : load install
        Select <System Option>
        Select <Edit Autoexec.NCF file>

      6. Modify the server's AUTOEXEC.NCF as follows:

        : load C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM
        : load C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM
        : load C:\NWSERVER\ETHERTSM.NLM
        : load C:\NWSERVER\CN650EP.LAN
        : bind ipx to CN650EP net=xxxx  ;xxxx is the network number (eg. 33)

      7. Press  <Esc> key when done editing.
        Select "Yes" to save.
        Select "Exit" to exit installation.

      8. Reboot the server system.  The driver is now installed.


   Sample AUTOEXEC.NCF file
   ------------------------
      #Load the NLM files on Netware server
      #-------------------------------------------
      load c:\nwserver\nbi
      load c:\nwserver\msm
      load c:\nwserver\ethertsm

      #Working with CN650EP driver (one CN650EP card)
      #---------------------------------------------------
      load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_ii    name=e1
      load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_802.2 name=e2
      load c:\nwserver\CN650EP frame=ethernet_802.3 name=e3
      bind ipx to e1 net=10
      bind ipx to e2 net=20
      bind ipx to e3 net=30

      
   NOTES:
   ------
      1. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters:
         The keyword "EtherID" is the ethernet address of a adapter. This
         keyword is provided for multiple LAN adapters in a single server
         by the driver CN650EP.LAN.  So, add EtherID in LOAD commands. For
         example:
      
         LOAD CN650EP EtherID=0123456789AB FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A
         BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
         LOAD CN650EP EtherID=0123456789BC FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B
         BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22
      
      2. Installing One LAN adapter with Multiple Frame Types:
         When  binding multiple frame types to one adapter, enter a LOAD
         and BIND statement for each frame type. Each LOAD statement will
         use a different network number is required on the bind statement.
         You need  to supply  a name on each load line in order to avoid
         being  prompted  for which  board to bind IPX to. If you do not
         have the name option in the AUTOEXEC.NCF , it will not  execute
         completely without user intervention.  Example:
      
           LOAD CN650EP FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023
           BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111
           LOAD CN650EP FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022
           BIND IPX TO LAN8022 NET=22222
      
   If problems occur during the binding process, your  screen will prompt
   you with error  messages.  Please refer to your NetWare 386 manual for
   details on these messages.
