Server Driver for NetWare 42_5X
======================================================================
Introduction:
-------------
This document describes the procedure to install the NetWare 42_5X
server driver for Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter/Fiber Gigabit
Ethernet Network Adapter.
Location of Driver: \NWSRV\TC902X.LAN
\NWSRV\TC902X.LDI
Installaton Procedure :
---------------------
Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
the Novell NetWare v5.0 server is properly installed.
Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your
server.
1. Insert the Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter/Fiber Gigabit
Ethernet Network Adapter Driver Diskette into drive A and check
the contents of subdirectory \NWSRV\, It should contain the
following file :
TC902X.LAN Novell NetWare 42_5X Server Driver
TC902X.LDI Novell NetWare 42_5X Server Driver Installation
Information File
2. At the NetWare prompt (indicated by the Server name), run the
NWCONFIG.NLM program by typing:
server name: LOAD NWCONFIG <Enter>
3. Select " Driver options " and press <Enter>.
4. Select " Configure network drivers " and press <Enter>.
5. Select " Select an addtional driers " and press <Enter>.
6. Press the <Ins> key to specify other drivers to install.
7. Press <F3> and specify the driver path (A:\NWSRV\)
and press <Enter>.
8. The TC902X.LAN driver should appear in your choice list for the
'Select a Driver to install' field. Choose this driver and press
<Enter>.
9. Press <Yes> to copy TC902X.LAN and TC902X.LDI to the Server 42_5X
SYSTEM directory. And then it will start driver loading and
binding procedure. This will allow you to load and bind all 4
frame types supported by NetWare.
10. Add the LOAD and BIND statements you require to the server's
AUTOEXEC.NCF file so that the LAN driver will load automatically
each time the server starts up.
Installation Notes:
-------------------
1.Installing Multiple LAN Adapters:
The keyword "SLOT" is provided for multiple LAN adapters in a
single server by the driver TC902X.LAN. So, add EtherID in LOAD
commands. For example:
LOAD TC902X FRAME=ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A SLOT=1
BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
LOAD TC902X FRAME=ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B SLOT=2
BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22
2. The keyword is provided for specifying adapter's speed (10M/100M)
and duplex mode(half/full), add the mediumtype in LOAD commands.
