	    Driver installation Guide for Novell NetWare Server
	 =========================================================

Introduction
============
    This document describes the procedure to install 32bit ODI driver on
    Novell Netware 4.x/5.x Server for Compex FreedomLine 1000Base-T PCI 
    Adapter.

    Location of Driver:  \NETWARE\DP83820.LAN


Installation Procedure
======================
 A. Novell NetWare v4.x:
    --------------------
    Before you load the DP83820 NIC LAN driver,  please add "SET Minimum
    Packet Receive Buffers = 1500" in the STARTUP.NCF.

    1. Copy all the LAN driver from 'a:\NETWARE' directory of the driver
       diskette to the directory  where the NetWare 4.x system files are
       locatted (\SYSTEM).

    2. Boot NetWare file server by executing "SERVER" as you usually do.

    3. To load the driver manually,  simply at the system console screen
       type the following command:

       : Load DP83820 Frame=Ethernet_802.3

	or, you can directly load file from the driver diskette:

       : Load A:\NETWARE\DP83820 Frame=Ethernet_802.3

       Note: (1) NBI.NLM, MSM.NLM, ETHERTSM.NLM  can be auto-loaded when
		 loading LAN driver.

	     (2) Frame type depends on your network frame type.
		 (Default frame type is Ethernet_802.2).

    4. To bind IPX to the adapter driver, type:

       : Bind IPX to DP83820 Net=12345

       Note:  Net value depend on your network configuration.

    5. To load the driver automatically  when server start-up,	you must
       create or edit 'AUTOEXEC.NCF'.


    --- Sample AUTOEXEC.NCF file ---

	(1) One PCI board with multiple frame:

	    REM Load the MSM and TSM on Netware 4.1x
	    REM ------------------------------------
	    load nbi
	    load msm
	    load ethertsm

	    REM Working with DP83820 driver (one PCI board)
	    REM -------------------------------------------
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.2 name=e1
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.3 name=e2
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_ii    name=e3
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_snap  name=e4
	    bind ipx to e1 net=10
	    bind ipx to e2 net=20
	    bind ipx to e3 net=30
	    bind ipx to e4 net=40


	(2) Mutiple PCI board with multiple frame:

	    REM Load the MSM and TSM on Netware 4.1x
	    REM ------------------------------------
	    load nbi
	    load msm
	    load ethertsm

	    REM Working with DP83820 driver (multiple PCI boards)
	    REM -------------------------------------------------
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.2 name=e1	slot=16
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.3 name=e2	slot=16
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_ii    name=e3	slot=16
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_snap  name=e4	slot=16
	    bind ipx to e1 net=10
	    bind ipx to e2 net=20
	    bind ipx to e3 net=30
	    bind ipx to e4 net=40

	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.2 name=e5	slot=17
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_802.3 name=e6	slot=17
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_ii    name=e7	slot=17
	    load DP83820 frame=ethernet_snap  name=e8	slot=17
	    bind ipx to e5 net=50
	    bind ipx to e6 net=60
	    bind ipx to e7 net=70
	    bind ipx to e8 net=80


 B. Novell NetWare v5.x:
    --------------------
    Before you load the DP83820 NIC LAN driver,  please add "SET Minimum
    Packet Receive Buffers = 1500" in the STARTUP.NCF.

    1. In the system console, type the command "nwconfig".

    2. Choice Driver options ->Configure network driver. Then "Addtional
       Driver Action" screen appear.

    3. Choice "Select an addtional driver",  then press "Ins" key to add
       an unlisted driver  and press "F3" key to specify the driver path
       'A:\NETWARE'.

    4. After copy files, Protocol seting screen will appear. Modify your
       driver's parameter and protocols.


Parameters
==========
    The following parameters belong on the server's command line,  or in
    the load line inside the 'AUTOEXEC.NCF'.  The  general  way of using
    these parameters is:

	LOAD <driver name> <PARAMETER NAME>... <PARAMETER NAME[=VALUE]>

    Example:

	LOAD DP83820 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
	BIND IPX TO DP83820 NET=12345
