ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
This file explains how to install the driver onto the
Novell NetWare Server 3.11 system.
3) System Requirement
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
A) Hardware Requirements :
o An IBM-compatible personal computer with 80386 or higher
microprocessor and PCI bus.
o This adapter.
B) Firmware Requirements :
o Fully compliant Rev. 2.0 or above PCI BIOS supplied with
the PC.
o If the adapter makes use of DECchip 21050 (PCI-PCI bridge),
PCI BIOS should support PCI-PCI bridge architecture.
C) Software Revision Requirements:
o NetWare , version 3.11
o Novell support modules , as supplied in kit directories
4) Installing Software
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
To install the Novell NetWare Server Driver :
The DC21X4.LAN is the Novell NetWare Server Driver for the adapter.
And the driver is placed in the \NETWARE\SERVER\3.11\ directory.
A) Copy The DC21X4.LAN to the SYS:\SYSTEM directory on the
NetWare server.
B) Add to your AUTOEXEC.NCF the line required to load the
DC21X4.LAN and bind it. Refer to the sample AUTOEXEC.NCF
for more information.
5) Parameters
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
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 <driver name> TURBO SLOT=16 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2
The driver specific parameters list (as for NetWare standard
parameters, please see the NetWare user's manual) :
AUI selects AUI port if any
TP selects TP port
BNC selects BNC port if any
TP_NO_LINK_TEST selects twisted pair connection, but
disables the LINK test for specific HUBs
that do not support LINK.
TP_FULL_DUPLEX selects twisted pair connection to work
in the full duplex mode.
TURBO Fixes the problem of multiple transmit
underflows and receive overflows
(i.e. lose of packets) in systems that
use certain PCI chipsets.
LINE_SPEED selects line speed between 10MPBs and
100MBPs on adapter.
Format: LINE_SPEED=<value>
Allowed values are: 10,100
GENERAL_PURPOSE_CONTROL user override of the control value in
the GENERAL_PURPOSE register in adapter.
Normally, this value should not be
changed.
Format: GENERAL_PURPOSE_CONTROL=<Hexadecimal Value>
Allowed values: in the range 1FF-0 hex.
GENERAL_PURPOSE_DATA user override of the data value in the
GENERAL_PURPOSE register in adapter.
Normally, this value should not be
changed.
Format: GENERAL_PURPOSE_DATA=<Hexadecimal Value>
Allowed values: in the range 1FF-0 hex.
T4 run in T4 100Mbps mode
NT run under NT requester
OS2 run in NetWare for OS/2
Unixware run in UnixWare
Client32Win run in Client 32 system for Windows
Client32Win95 run in Client 32 system for Windows 95
Client32DOS run in Client 32 system for DOS
Download Driver Pack
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.
