Select "Other Driver" and press [ENTER]. 5. Insert the Support Disk for Accton EN166X into the floppy drive. Enter the path name of the diskette. Select "OK" to continue. 6. Select the "Accton EN166X Ethernet Adapter" driver. Select "OK" to confirm. 7. Select an appropriate protocol, using the [SPACEBAR] to highlight it. Select "OK" to confirm. 8. The Configuration Complete message should display. 9. Save the configuration; select "Save". 10. Press [F3] to exit. LAN Manager version 2.2 ----------------------- 1. Connect to the LAN Manager directory and enter the Setup utility. The Microsoft LAN Manager Setup screen displays. 2. Select "Network Drivers..." in the "Configuration" field. Press [ENTER] to confirm. 3. Select "Add New Config" and press [ENTER] to display a list of network adapter drivers. 4. Select "Other Driver" and press [ENTER]. 5. Insert the Support Disk for Accton EN166X into the floppy drive. Enter the path name of the diskette. Select "OK" to continue. 6. Select the "Accton EN166X Ethernet Adapter" driver. Select "OK" to confirm. 7. Select an appropriate protocol, using the [SPACEBAR] to highlight it. Select "OK" to confirm. If you select the TCP/IP protocol, you will be prompted for the IP address, the subnet mask, and the default gateway (router). By default, the workstation number of the NetBIOS session is set to 6. See the Microsoft LAN Manager Installation Manual or see online help for more details 8. The Configuration Complete message should display. 9. Save the configuration; select "Save". 10. Press [F3] to exit. All LAN Manager versions ------------------------ NOTE: If you are installing LAN Manager for the first time, you will be prompted for the default user name and domain of the workstation, as well as to answer, and for other Windows environment and memory management information. You must edit the "[Accton_NIF]" section of the PROTOCOL.INI file in the following cases. See the example at the end of this file. IF more than one Accton EN166X ISA adapter is installed, you must specify the interrupt (interrupt = ") and I/O base address ("iobase = ") for each adapter. Use the same settings from the hardware configuration of each adapter; you can view the settings in SETUP166. NOTE: The ISA Plug-and-Play HW configuration of an additional adapter can change the configuration of an existing, working adapter. Check its HW configuration again, and if changed, reinstall the driver. IF you have a non-Plug-and-Play computer, you must change the interrupt setting (interrupt = ") and I/O base address setting ("iobase = ") to match the hardware configuration for the adapter, as listed by SETUP166. If you did not make a note of them when configured, now use the "View Configuration" menu item in SETUP166 to note them. ========================== SAMPLE CONFIGURATION FILES ========================== Use one of the following to match your LAN Manager version, either 2.0, 2.1, or 2.2.
