Create a BOOT diskette (this diskette may be self-booting, or it may simply be a DOS-formatted blank diskette). 1.2 How To Install... 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� 1) Copy the following five files into your BOOT disk. a. LSL.COM 컴 supplied by Novell in the WSGEN diskette. (b.) RPLODI.COM 컴 Optinal, it's necessary for remote booting. supplied by Novell. c. NE12ODI.COM 컴 NE12ODI Driver in the \ODI\DOSODI subdirectory of the NE-12 adapter diskette. d. IPXODI.COM 컴 supplied by Novell in the WSGEN diskette. e. NETx.COM 컴 supplied by Novell in the WSGEN diskette. � or � EMSNETx.EXE 컴 (NETx program with EMS support) � or � XMSNETx.EXE 컴 (NETx program with XMS support) f. NET.CFG 컴 Optional configuration file supplied by the subdirectory of the NE-12 adapter diskette. Note: NE12ODI default frame type is Ethernet_802.2, but the default frame type is Ethernet_802.3 for Netware 3.X, Ethernet_802.2 for Netware 4.0. 1. Copy NET.CFG\802.3 to NET.CFG for Netware 3.X 2. Copy NET.CFG\802.2 to NET.CFG for Netware 4.0 2) After booting the workstation, type the following commands on the console: LSL NE12ODI IPXODI NETx You may wish to write all commands into a batch file and execute the batch file instead of typing all the commands each time the workstation needs to be booted up. 1.3 NET.CFG for NE-12 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 The NET.CFG file is used to provide the software configuration to the ODI driver on the NetWare workstation. Typically, all of the required operating parameters will have been preset by NE-12 jumpers and matched with file setting. You can edit the NET.CFG file that is on the current directory in order to change, add or delete any desired options by way of a plain- ASCII text editor (DOS 5.0's EDIT and EDLIN commands are good examples of plain-ASCII text editors). 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� � IMPORTANT: There can only be ONE file named NET.CFG in the � � same floppy disk or pathed directory. If the driver finds � � more than one NET.CFG file, it will become confused and may � � not work reliably. MAKE SURE THERE IS ONLY *ONE* NET.CFG! � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� PORT : Indicates the base I/O address for the NE-12 network card. type : [hex] range : [0x300,0x320,0x340,0x360] for NE-12 card range : [0x200, 0x220 ~ 0x380] for NE-12N card INT : Indicates the hardware interrupt being used by the network card. type : [decimal] range : [2,3,4,5,10,11,12,15] for NE-12 card FRAME : Indicates the link-level frame type. Note: The default frame type is Ethernet_802.3 for Netware 3.X. The default frame type is Ethernet_802.2 for Netware 4.0. 1.3.1 Example NET.CFG 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� Following is an example fragment from a NET.CFG file. This fragment lists the NE12 options described above. If this is the first time you will be creating a NET.CFG file, note the layout of the NET.CFG fragment below. Spacing in the layout of the NET.CFG is important for reliable operation of the adapter and network connection. 旼> Link Driver NE12 넬컴�> PORT 300 냉컴�> INT 2 냅컴�> FRAME ETHERNET_802.3 � 읕� The line "Link Driver NE12" must not be indented at all. 2.0 Novell NetWare ODI Server Driver Installation 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 Installing the Ethernet drivers into a server computer is outlined below. 2.1 Preparation 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 Before you start with the driver installation process to the server, make sure you have the following on hand: 1) NE-12 Ethernet adapter card 2) NE-12 Driver diskette 2.2 How To Install... 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 Installation of the Ethernet driver to a server is broken down into two parts: Hardware Installation (changes to existing setting in the adapter) and Software Installation (copying the appropriate driver to the server and loading). 2.2.1 Hardware Install 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 Installing the NE-12 into a server is the same with the installation of workstation. You just setup the hardware configuration by jumpers for NE-12 or by software for NE-12N, and record the final setting values. 2.2.2 Software Install 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 1) Login to the server as the "Supervisor" user. 2) Copy the server driver supplied in the NE-12 Software diskette's \ODI\386ODI\NET3.X subdirectory into the server's SYS:SYSTEM directory for Netware 3.X or copy the \ODI\386ODI\NET4.x subdirectory into the server's SYS:SYSTEM directory for Netware 4.0. 3) Use the LOAD command from the System Console to load the NE12ODI.LAN file into the server's memory. Normally, the driver would load from the SYS:SYSTEM directory of NetWare partition, but it could optionally be loaded from a floppy disk or a directory on a DOS partition of the server's hard disk instead. A typical command line to load the server driver is: LOAD NE12ODI.LAN PORT=300, INT=3 The LOAD line options may be entered in any sequence and the commas in between them are optional, as are most of the options themselves. However, the PORT and INT options MUST be included and they MUST equal the physical jumper settings. Following are the parameters that may be included in the LOAD line: PORT : The Base I/O Address at which the NE-12/NE-12N hardware has been set. A drive denominator may be added to the port address in order to specify a driver location other than the SYS:SYSTEM directory of the NetWare Partition. For example: ... PORT=300 ... <컴컴 Load driver from SYS:SYSTEM (default) ... PORT=300:A ... <컴 Load driver from floppy disk A: INT : This is the interrupt level (IRQ) that the adapter has been configured to use. 4) You may optionally wish to put the LOAD line in the STARTUP.NCF or AUTOEXEC.NCF auto-load driver files so that the LOAD statement will take effect when the server system is initialized.
