   (1) Introduction:
   ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

   (4) Setup Procedures for NetWare Client Manually:
   ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
      Before you start with the installation process, make sure that
      the  adapter is properly installed and configured. Make sure that
      your NetWare workstation operating system is properly installed.

      1. Copy DC21X4.COM from the Driver Diskette subdirectory
         A:\NWCLIENT\DOS to your hard disk.

      2. Create a batch file, or add to your STARTNET.BAT file the commands
         listed above under %%% STARTNET.BAT %%%.

      3. Edit the NET.CFG file that you copied over. Edit the file per your
         requirements (see examples above).  If there are two frame types
         listed, whichever frame type is listed first, that is the one that
         the driver will load.  See above for examples.   The NET.CFG file
         should be in the same directory with LSL.COM file.


   (5) Setup Procedures for NetWare Client by INSTALL.EXE Utility:
   ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
      The installation utility INSTALL.EXE is located on NetWare's
      "Workstation for DOS" disk. Run INSTALL.EXE from the Workstation
      for DOS Disk.

      The NetWare Client Install program screen will appear.  You must
      complete each of the questions.  These options are specific to your
      needs.

      1. Enter the destination directory for the NetWare Client.
         (The default directory is C:\NWCLIENT.)

      2. Gives you the option to automatically update the CONFIG.SYS
         and the AUTOEXEC.BAT files or modify them at a later time manually.

      3. Do you wish to install support for MS Windows? (Y/N)
         (MS Windows Subdirectory: default C:\WINDOWS)

      4. Asks you to select a network driver and provide configuration
         options. It uses the specifications you select to create the
         file NET.CFG. Insert the Drivers diskette when prompted for
         the driver disk and specify the driver path A:\NWCLIENT\DOS

      5. Press <Enter> to install

      Note: If the adapter not work fine after installation, try to adjust
            TransmitThreshold and ReceiveBuffers.

   (6) Parameters:
   ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
      1. BUS ID        PCI 4
         Forces the driver to search for the board on PCI bus only.

      2. SLOT          1
         In PCI  - Forces the driver to search for this board instance
                   (1 is First Board).

      3. TX_THRESHOLD 4
         Setup the threshold value of transmit FIFO.
         0 - 72 bytes
         1 - 96 bytes
         2 - 128 bytes
         3 - 160 bytes
         4 - 160 bytes in Tulip and Full packet in FasterNet 100Mbps.

      4. AUTOSENSE
         Performs Power-Up Autosense on all types of boards in order to
         connect to the active line, and dynamic 10/100 autosensing
         (at run-time) on boards supporting it.

      5. TURBO
         Disable PCI post write buffer in Intel PCI chipset which gives the
         PCI bus higher priority over the other busses (EISA or ISA).

      6. TP
         Selects Twisted Pair interface.

      7. TP_FULL_DUPLEX
         Selects Twisted Pair interface running in FullDuplex mode.

      8. RX_BUFFERS   5
         Allows the user to select the amount of receive buffers to work with
         (between 2 to F). More buffers means larger driver resident in
         memory but with higher performance.

      9. AUI
         selects AUI interface

     10. BNC
         selects BNC interface

     11. TP_No_Link_Test
         Selects Twisted Pair interface. Transmit does not perform link pulses
         test.

     12. T4
         selects 100 Base-T4 interface
         (in conjunction with Line_Speed 100)

     13. Line_Speed   100
         Selects the between 10MBps or 100MBps ports and line speed.
         Default is 100MBps for the Fast Ethernet chip.

     14. SNOOZE
         Change Chip's Power Management to Power-Saving mode.



   (7) NOTE:
   ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
      1. Be sure to add LASTDRIVE=Z to your CONFIG.SYS file for the
         network mappings to work properly.
