Introduction:
=============

  The  Ethernet  ODI  Driver  for  NetWare 4.x Servers confirms to the Novell
  Open Data-Link Interface (ODI) specification. This document shows you how to
  setup the driver and how to use the enhanced functions by setting the custom
  keywords.


Contents of the Subdirectory:
=============================

    PNPNWSRV.LAN        The ODI driver for NetWare 4.x Server.
    PNPNWSRV.LDI        The installation information file.
    NW4X.TXT            This file.

Installation:
=============

  Before starting with  the  installation process, make sure that the adapter
  is properly installed and configured.  You  can  use the diagnostic program
  (A:\SETUP.EXE) in DOS mode to make sure your connection with the network is
  correct.

  Using Server Install utility:
  -----------------------------
    1) On the server console, execute the INSTALL.NLM program:

                LOAD INSTALL <Enter>

    2) Choose "Driver Option/Configure network drivers/Select a driver".

    3) Press the <Ins> key to install the driver which is not on the list.

    4) Press  <F3>  to  specify  a different path (A:\NETWARE\SRVRODI.4X) and
       press  <Enter>.

    5) The PNPNWSRV.LAN should appear on the selection list. Press <Enter> to
       choose it.

    6) You can "Select/Modify driver parameters and protocols", and then "Save
       parameters and load driver".

    7) You can add the LOAD and BIND command lines to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file so
       that the LAN driver will be loaded automatically while the server
       is starting up.


  Loading Driver Manually:
  ------------------------
    1) On the server console, load the driver directly, for example:

           LOAD A:\NETWARE\SRVRODI.311\PNPNWSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=C1

       You can load another frame type if needed , like ETHERNET_802.3 or

       ETHERNET_II or ETHERNET_SNAP .

    20 Bind with IPX:

           BIND IPX TO C1      ;C1 is borad name defined by user

    3) You can login the server from a workstation, and then copy PNPODI.LAN to
       the directory SYS:\SYSTEM on server. Add the LOAD and BIND command lines
       to AUTOEXEC.NCF file so that the lan driver will be loaded automatically
       while the server starting up next time.


  NOTE:
  -----
    Multiple Lan Adapters in a system:
      If you want to  install  mutiple lan adapters in a server, you have to use
      the keyword ,  PNPID,  to let driver locate the right adapter. You can use
      the diagnostic program (A:\SETUP.EXE) in DOS mode to show all the Ethernet
      addresses of your adapters. For example:

        LOAD PNPNWSRV PNPID=00406300201A FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_1
        BIND IPX TO Lan_1 NET=2001
        LOAD PNPNWSRV PNPID=00406300201B FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_2
        BIND IPX TO Lan_2 NET=2002



Configuration Parameters:
=========================

    Custom Keywords:
    ----------------
        PNPID = hhhhhhhhhhhh        This keyword is the Ethernet Address of
                                    the adapter you want to drive. If there
                                    are more than one ethernet  adapters in
                                    your  system ,  you  have  to  use this
                                    keyword to let driver locate  the right
                                    adapter. However, you don't have to use
                                    this  keyword  or  let the value  to be
                                    zero (i.e. PNPID = 0) if  there is only
                                    one adapter in your system.

        EARLYTRANSMIT               This  keyword  is  used to enable turbo
                                    transmission mode for accelerating data
                                    transmission.

        EARLYRECEIVE                This keyword  is  used  to enable turbo
                                    receiption mode  for  accelerating data
                                    receiption.

        FULLDUPLEX                  This  keyword is  used  to  enable full
                                    duplex mode.

        Note: For ISA PnP mode, you don't have to define INT and PORT number.

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
