Installation Hardware and Software Requirements: A. Hardware Requirements: o An IBM-compatible personal computer with 80486 or higher microprocessor with PCI bus and at least 32MB RAM. o Compex RL100ATX 10/100Base-TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter B. Bios Requirements: o Fully compliant Rev. 2.0, 2.1 PCI BIOS supplied with the PC. ฺฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฟ ณ INSTALLATION GUIDE ณ ภฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤฤู Below are guidelines for installing the server driver, RL100A.LAN, in a NetWare v3.12 environment. ********************************************************************** Note:-1) Loading the new specification NLMs without the NetWare Loader patch may prompt a warning message. This message will not affect the operation of RL100ATX To apply the Loader patch, see instruction provided in the directory A:\NW3.12\312LDR.PAT 2) The "minimum packet receive buffers" must be adjusted to 150 when loading multiple frames or adapters support. Add the statement below in STARTUP.NCF file; SET MINIMUM PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS=150 ********************************************************************** 1. Install Novell NetWare v3.12 operating system into your server station hard disk. 2. Copy all files in A:\NW3.12 directory of distribution diskette to C:\SERVER.312 directory of NetWare v3.12 server hard disk. For example, type, A:\COPY A:\NW3.12\*.* C:\SERVER.312 Run NLM312.EXE to extract the support NLMs file. e.g. C:\NWSERVER> NLM312.EXE 3. Run SERVER.EXE on the NetWare v3.12 server station. 4. At the NetWare 386 prompt, type: : C:\SERVER.312\RATX312.NCF <enter> Note: Edit RATX312.NCF if NetWare server boot directory is different from that in RATX312.NCF This loads the following files, NBI31X.NLM, MSM31X, ETHERTSM, and RL100A 5. Next bind IPX to the server driver by typing: : BIND IPX RL100A net=xxxxxxxx where xxxxxxxx can be 1 to 8 digits long in hexadecimal. 6. Server is now ready to service the workstations Update AUTOEXEC.NCF file to auto-load these file when the server starts. ออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออออ Login in as Supervisor user and change to the SYSTEM directory. Use any text editor like Notepad or DOS EDIT open the file AUTOEXEC.NCF Insert the following text after the line "IPX internet address= nnnnnnnn" e.g. IPX internet address = nnnnnnnn C:\SERVER.312\RATX312.NCF <-- add line Bind IPX RL100A net=xxxxxxxx <-- add line OR enter the following, : LOAD INSTALL <Enter> select option "Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF file" then add the following lines, LOAD C:\SERVER.312\MSM31X LOAD C:\SERVER.312\ETHERTSM LOAD C:\SERVER.312\RL100A SLOT=n BIND IPX RL100A NET=<ipx network number> For more than 1 card or if you load multiple frame types, you may want to type in the following instead, LOAD C:\SERVER.312\RL100A SLOT=n NAME=<any short name> where, n is the slot number and <any short name> is any short meaningful name e.g. RA1_803 e.g. Show 1 card loads 2 frame types and 1 card load one frame type. Notice line 1 and 3 need not add the FRAME parameter because by default Ethernet_802.3 frame type is load. LOAD C:\SERVER.312\RL100A slot=1 Name=RA1_803 LOAD C:\SERVER.312\RL100A slot=1 Frame=Ethenret_802.2 Name=RA1_802 LOAD C:\SERVER.312\RL100A slot=2 Name=RA2_803 BIND IPX RA1_803 NET=1234 BIND IPX RA1_802 NET=1235 BIND IPx RA2_803 NET=2222 press ESC to save and quit INSTALL. If you load manually, the modules should be loaded in this sequence; : Load C:\SERVER.312\NBI31X.NLM : Load C:\SERVER.312\MSM31X.NLM : Load C:\SERVER.312\ETHERTSM.NLM : Load C:\SERVER.312\RL100A.LAN Slot=n : Bind IPX RL100A net=xxxxxxxx ** NOTE ** Upon loading three NLM modules (MSM.NLM, ETHERTSM.NLM and NBI.NLM), if your NetWare server has not run the Loader patch from Novell for NetWare server this error message will show, " This version of NetWare does not support protected mode BIOS access. Without a loader patch some PCI driver may fail" With RL100ATX PCI driver, just ignore the message. RL100ATX PCI driver will run properly without the loader patch on the server. To support protected mode BIOS access, run the Novell Loader patch provided in this driver distribution disk in A:\NW3.12\312LDR.PAT. Using other frame type ออออออออออออออออออออออ 1. If you want to use other frame type, you can type: :LOAD RL200A Slot=x frame=ethernet_802.3 in the Netware server prompt. * The default frame type is ethernet_802.2. This driver supports 4 frame types, they are ethernet_802.2, ethernet_802.3, ethernet_snap and ethernet_ii. Driver Options ออออออออออออออ 1. If you want to install two or more adapters, you can type: :LOAD RL100A SLOT=n * where n is the SLOT number. If you do not know the slot number, just type "LOAD RL100A", a list of Slot Number for the adapters will be displayed, you need to select a desired Slot Number from the screen. 2. If you want to set the FullDuplex Function, you can type, :Load RL200A Slot=n FullDuplex=autodetect (Default AutoDetect, Options: disable or enable) * The default value of FullDuplex Function is autodetect. This adapter can be in half or full duplex mode. In half duplex mode, RL100ATX can only either transmit or receive at any one time. In full duplex mode, RL100ATX can transmit and receive at the same time. The reasonable values are autodetect (auto detect full duplex function by the driver), disable(disable full duplex), and enable(enable full duplex). 3. If you want to set Line Speed, you can type, :Load RL200A Slot=n LineSpeed= 10M (Default autodetect, options: 10M or 100M) * The default value of Line Speed is autodetect. This adapter can be operationed in 10M or 100M Mbps. The reasonable values are autodetect(auto detect line speed by the driver), 10M(set the Line Speed is 10M) or 100M(set the Line Speed is 100M).
