G.) Parameters Description for SMC1211.LAN
The following parameters are used in SMC1211.LAN.
1.> SLOT : specify which adapter is enabled when multiple SMC1211TX
are found in your computer. The SLOT keyword is a index
value corresponding to PCI BIOS. The mapping from SLOT
to physical PCI slot is different from one machine to
the other.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 SLOT=3 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2
LOAD SMC1211 SLOT=4 FRAME=ETHERNET_II
2.> FRAME : specify 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 the
drive by loading the same driver with different FRAME type.
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 : Use a different address to replace the node address burned
in EEPROM.
Ex: LOAD SMC1211 NODE=0200E8001122
