                      ---------------------------------------------------
      LSWAP.EXE       For Netware 3.12 you must download the LOADER.EXE 
      LOADER.EXE      and LSWAP.EXE provided by Novell. Then copy them to
                      the NWSERVER directory and run the LSWAP.EXE to
                      update the loader segment in the server.exe file.
                      This is required by Novell in order for the
                      NBI31X/MSM31X to function correctly.
      --------------------------------------------------------------------

   C. Installing Software:

      1. NetWare v3.12 installation:

         1.1 Copy The AON315.LAN to the SYS:\SYSTEM directory on the NetWare
             server.

         1.2 Add to your AUTOEXEC.NCF the line required to load the
             AON315.LAN and bind it. Refer to the sample AUTOEXEC.NCF for
             more information (according to the type of NetWare you are
             using, i.e. v3.12 or 4.x).

         1.3 For Netware 3.12 ONLY you must copy the LOADER.EXE and LSWAP.EXE
             to the NWSERVER directory and run the LSWAP.EXE to update the
             loader segment in the server.exe file. This is required by Novell
             in order for the NBI31X/MSM31X to function correctly.

      2. NetWare v4.x installation:

         2.1 Have ready a diskette with AON315.LAN and AON315.LDI both from
             the driver's kit.

         2.2 On the server's prompt type: LOAD INSTALL

         2.3 When the install program comes up, choose the menu item that
             refers to NETWORK DRIVERS.
             Note that this menu item is on different place on different
             NetWare versions (i.e. v4.0x vs. 4.1x).

         2.4 Install the network driver AON315.LAN according to the NetWare
             manual, or use the on-line instructions and help.

         NOTE: The 3.12 and 4.x driver (one and the same) use the NBI layer
               from Novell.

      3. NetWare v5.x installation:

         3.1 Execute "LOAD NWCONFIG" after booting up. Type:

              LOAD NWCONFIG

         3.2 Select "Driver options", -> "Configure network drivers", and
             -> "Select a driver".

         3.3 Press <Insert> key to install an unlisted driver.

         3.4 Please insert release driver diskette into floppy disk.

         3.5 Press <F3> to specify a different <PATH>. <PATH> is directory
             which include both AON315.LAN and AON315.LDI

              Ex. A:\NWSERVER\

         3.6 Select "AON315.LAN ...".

         3.7 Select "Save parameters and load driver" after configuring adapter
             setting.

         3.8 NetWare server will loading/binding driver automatically.

         3.9 After the driver has been loaded, check whether all the frame types
             you want are specified for this driver in AUTOEXEC.NCF.



   D.  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 <driver name> TURBO SLOT=16 FRAME=Ethernet_802.2

        ------------------------------------------------------------------
        NOTE that wrong values (such as 'line_speed=128') are IGNORED, and 
             a default value is taken instead.
        ------------------------------------------------------------------

       Driver specific parameters list  (as for NetWare standard parameters,
       please see the NetWare user's manual):

            TP              selects TP port.

            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
                            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
