5 LAN Server v1.1 LAN Server installation notes for Compaq 10 and 10/100 Controllers and the NC3121 Fast Ethernet NIC ====================================================== Location of files: \NDIS\N100.OS2 (OS/2* driver) \NDIS\N100EO2.NIF or \NDIS\DOS\N100.DOS (DOS driver) \NDIS\DOS\N100EDS.NIF (DLR and LSP installation file) NOTE: LAN Requester needs DOS 3.3 through 5, but if you're using DOS 6.0 or higher, run SETVER.EXE prior to using the executable files found on the DOS LAN Requester disks. See your DOS manual if you need help with SETVER.EXE. Sample configuration file ------------------------- PROTOCOL.INI (will include): [N100_NIF] DriverName = N100$ General installation - LAN Server and OS/2 Requester (4.0 or 3.0) ----------------------------------------------------------------- 1 Run the MPTS utility with LAN Server 4.0 or OS/2 Requester 4.0 (Run the LAPS utility with LAN Server 3.0 or OS/2 Requester 3.0) 2 Click Install. 3 When prompted, insert the Compaq Configuration and Drivers disk in a floppy drive, specify A:\NDIS for driver location, and click OK. 4 When Install reads the N100EO2.NIF, installation is complete. Click OK. The controller driver has been copied to your system. 5 Click Configure from the MPTS window. 6 At the Configure window, make sure the LAN controllers and protocols button is on and click CONFIGURE. 7 At the LAPS Configuration window, select the Compaq 10 and 10/100 controllers (OS/2 driver: N100.OS2) from the Network Controllers window. Click Add in the Network Adapters window to add the 10 and 10/100 PCI controllers to the current configuration. 8 Select your desired Protocol(s) from the Protocol window and click Add from this window to add the protocol(s) to the current configuration. 9 Click OK when you're done and follow the prompts to exit MPTS. Your CONFIG.SYS is automatically updated. Shutdown and reset your system so the changes can take effect. General installation under DOS (DOS LAN Services) ================================================= NOTE: Due to a problem with the DLS installation utility, you need to complete the following steps before executing the installation of DLS: 1 On DLS Diskette 1, make a directory off the root called NDIS. 2 Copy the file N100.DOS (from the \NDIS\DOS directory of the Compaq Configuration and Drivers) into this new directory \NDIS on DLS Diskette 1. 1 Run the DOS LAN Services installation program at the DOS workstation. Follow the prompts. 2 When presented with an controller list, select Network card not shown in list below. 3 When prompted for the location of the OEMSETUP.INF file, insert the Compaq Configuration and Drivers disk in your drive and enter A:\NDIS\DOS as the path. 4 Select a Compaq 10 or 10/100 controller from the list. Follow the prompts. 5 Enter your machine name, username and domain name. 6 Set the options as you need; then highlight "The listed options are correct" and press Enter. 7 Accept the defaults on the next screen, highlight "The listed options are correct" and press Enter. 8 Set the Speed, Duplex mode, or Slot Device if needed. We recommend accepting the defaults. Then highlight "The listed options are correct" and press Enter. 9 You may be asked to insert DLS disks. Follow the prompts to complete the installation and restart your computer for changes to take effect. General Installation under DOS: LAN Support Program (LSP) ========================================================= 1 Run DXMAID from the LAN Support Program disk. 2 Follow the prompts and instructions. 3 When prompted, insert the Compaq Configuration and Drivers disk and enter the pathname A:\NDIS\DOS. 4 The default configuration is suitable for most environments. We recommend accepting the defaults. 5 After the installation is complete, restart your computer for the changes to take affect. General Installation under DOS (DOS LAN Requester) ================================================== 1 Run the DOS LAN Requester installation program at the DOS workstation. Follow the prompts to configure your DOS LAN Requester as you require. 2 After the installation is complete, restart your computer for the changes to take affect. Advanced settings ================= SPEED: (Compaq 10/100 controller or NC3121 Fast Ethernet NIC only) (optional; parameters are [Auto / 10 / 100]) The parameter disables Auto-Speed Detect and causes the controller to function at the speed indicated. If the FORCEDUPLEX parameter is assigned to either 1 or 2, the SPEED parameter is required because auto-speed sensing is disabled if the duplex mode is forced. Auto-negotiate devices cannot detect speed changes in this configuration until the driver is reloaded.[Example: SPEED=100] FORCEDUPLEX: Compaq 10/100 controller or NC3121 Fast Ethernet NIC: Supports auto- negotiate, full and half duplex at 10 or 100 Mbps. Compaq 10 controller: full or half duplex at 10 Mbps. This parameter disables Auto-Negotiate capability and forces the controller to operate in Half or Full Duplex mode. The SPEED parameter must be specified and must be valid if the default of Auto- negotiate is changed. Options for FORCEDUPLEX are Auto (for auto- negotiate), 1 (for half), 2 (for full). [Example: FORCEDUPLEX = 2] SLOT: (required for multiple controllers) This parameter is optional if only one controller is present. If it is specified but is incorrect, a message indicates that the value doesn't match the configuration but the driver finds the controller and loads anyway. This parameter is required if more than one controller is present in either one bus or multiple PCI buses of a system. The parameter tells the driver which controller it controls. The SLOT number is the encoded value of the PCI controller's device location. To determine the slot number, load the driver with only the DRIVERNAME parameter specified. The driver reports all the slots that have PCI controller(s) installed. You can determine which card is in which slot by using SETUP.EXE and matching the Ethernet addresses of the controller to the device number specified in View Configuration.
