F. Parameter Description for SMC1211.LAN
The following parameters are used in SMC1211.LAN.
1. SLOT : specifies which adapter is enabled when multiple SMC1211TX
adapters are found in your computer. The SLOT keyword is an
index value corresponding to PCI BIOS. The mapping from SLOT
to the physical PCI slot is different from one machine to
another.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 SLOT=3 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
LOAD SMC1211 SLOT=4 FRAME=ETHERNET_II
2. FRAME : specifies which frame type is used by the driver. Accepted
values are Ethernet_802.2, Ethernet_802.3, Ethernet_II and
Ethernet_SNAP. Multiple frame types can be enabled by
loading the same driver with different FRAME types.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
LOAD SMC1211 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3
LOAD SMC1211 FRAME=ETHERNET_II
LOAD SMC1211 FRAME=ETHERNET_SNAP
3. NODE : Uses a different address to replace the node address burned
in EEPROM.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 NODE=0000E8001122
4. Medium : Specifies which medium type is used by the driver.
Accepted values are AUTO,100FULL,100HALF,10FULL and
10HALF.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 SLOT=3 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 Medium=100FULL
