Novell NetWare Server 4.x
-------------------------

For a NetWare 4.x server configuration, We provides a NetWare Server 4.x ODI
driver which is included on the PCI Ethernet Card driver diskette.

Note:
-----
The directory structure provided on the PCI Ethernet Card driver diskette has
been setup for automatic OEM installation. Also, more information can be found
in the Novell NetWare 4.x documentation.

Use the (LOAD) and (BIND) commands to load the NetWare 4.x ODI server driver
as described below. For more information on these commands, refer to the
Novell NetWare 4.x LAN Driver Installation documentation.

There are two methods for loading the NetWare Server 4.x driver: 1) use the
server command line prompt (":") or 2) edit the (AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.

Note:
-----
If you use the server command line, you will need to load the driver each time
the system is booted. If you edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, it will automatically
load the driver each time your system is booted.

Follow the steps listed below:

1       Install NetWare 4.x on your system.

2       Copy the ODI Server driver (PCIODI.LAN) from the PCI Ethernet Card
        driver diskette to the hard disk directory where the NetWare 4.x system
        files are located. The following path should be used to access the files
        from the PCI Ethernet Card driver diskette:

                A:\SERVER.ODI\4.x\PCIODI.LAN

3       Boot NetWare by executing (SERVER.EXE). Refer to the appropriate
        Novell NetWare documentation on loading disk drivers and mounting
        volumes for more information.

4       To load the driver manually, follow the steps listed below. If you
        want to load the driver using (AUTOEXEC), go to step 5.

        Notes:
        1) You will need to specify the DOS path if the driver is located
           in a DOS partition.


        Type the following command at the file server console:

                LOAD PCIODI


        Next, bind the driver to the IPX protocol stack by typing:

                BIND IPX TO PCIODI NET=xxxx
                (Bind to IPX or any other protocol stack; where e.g.,
                 xxxx=1234)

        Then press <Enter>.

        The installation of the NetWare Server 4.x driver is now complete.


5       To load the driver using (AUTOEXEC), you must first edit the
        (AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.

        * Type "LOAD INSTALL" at the server prompt (":") to access
          the Install Utility.

        * Open the "MAINTENANCE/SELECTIVE INSTALL" menu and select the
          "NCF File Options" from the menu to access "EDIT AUTOEXEC".

        * Then add the following command lines to the (AUTOEXEC.NCF) file.


        An example with a PCI Ethernet Card:

                LOAD PCIODI FRAME=Ethernet_802.2

                BIND IPX TO PCIODI NET=xxxx
                (Bind to IPX or any other protocol stack; where e.g., xxxx=1234)

        The installation of the NetWare Server 4.x driver is now complete.

        Notes:
        ------
        1) You will need to specify the DOS path if the driver is located
           in a DOS partition.



FRAME (Multiple Frame Type Support)
-----------------------------------
The FRAME keyword should be used with the LOAD command to designate the
desired frame type. In addition, to support multiple FRAME types,
the BOARD keyword must be used in conjunction with the FRAME keyword if no
IO Address is specified. The available frame types:

                                Ethernet_802.2
                                Ethernet_802.3
                                Ethernet_SNAP
                                Ethernet_II

Please refer to the appropriate Novell NetWare documentation for details
regarding each frame type.

For example, to load multiple frame types for one PCI Ethernet Card,
the following commands should be entered:

        LOAD PCIODI FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
        LOAD PCIODI FRAME=Ethernet_802.3
        LOAD PCIODI FRAME=Ethernet_II
        LOAD PCIODI FRAME=Ethernet_SNAP

Then press <Enter>.

Finally, the driver must be (binded) to the IPX protocol for each frame type
based on the procedure provided in the Novell NetWare documentation.

FRAME (Single Frame Type Support)
---------------------------------
The FRAME keyword should be used with the LOAD command to designate the
desired frame type. For single FRAME support, no BOARD keyword is needed
to designate the frame type. The available values and description to load
FRAME types is explained above.

NAME
----

The NAME keyword may be used with the LOAD command to specify the board number
to the selected physical adapter board. This keyword is used to load a
different frame type to the same board.
    For example LOAD PCIODI FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=E_802.2
                BIND IPX TO E_802.2
                LOAD PCIODI FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=E_802.3
                BIND IPX TO E_802.3

Loading Multiple PCI Ethernet Cards
-----------------------------------

The driver must be loaded again for each new PCI Ethernet Card
installed in the system.

If more than one adapter card will be installed, the user must
specify the Board's Ethernet ID for each card. For example, to load
two PCI Ethernet Cards:

        LOAD PCIODI

        Found Board 1: port D000, int 11, EtherID=002018ff0088
        Found Board 2: port 8000, int 15, EtherID=002018ff0077

        Now you can Specify '1' or '2' to select the PCI Ethernet Card
        to load.

Then press <Enter>.

NOTE : If you want to use two or more PCI Ethernet Cards on your NetWare
       server.please run the configuration utility(EZPCI.EXE) to view crad's
       Ethernet ID setting first.
