Installation

1. At the file server console prompt, issue these load statements in the

order given here:

LOAD <DRIVE>:<PATH>\NBI

LOAD <DRIVE>:<PATH>\MSM

LOAD <DRIVE>:<PATH>\ETHERTSM

LOAD <DRIVE>:<PATH>\<DRIVER>

Where <DRIVE> and <PATH> are the drive and directory where you
copied the NLMs and the adapter driver file. <DRIVER> is the filename
of the driver.

Note

If MSM and ETHERTSM NLMs are not loaded, they are
automatically loaded before the driver. You will be prompted if you
do not specify a SLOT number.

Type the following command to bind the LAN driver to IPX in order to
attach it to the server.

BIND IPX TO <DRIVER> NET=n

Where <DRIVER> is the filename of the driver and n is the node
address Novell uses for routing IPX packets. This number is arbitrary if
there is only one server on the network. If there are multiple servers on
the same network, this value must match the other servers' external
network number.

Note

The default frame type for Novell file servers is now Ethernet_802.2.
If you require Ethernet_802.3, specify FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 on
the command line when loading the driver.

To load multiple frame types for a single card, enter a LOAD and BIND
statement for each frame type. You need to supply a name on each
load line in order to avoid being prompted for which board to bind to an
IPX. If you do not have the name option in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, it
will not execute completely without user intervention.

Example:

LOAD <DRIVER> FRAME=ETHERNET_802.3 NAME=IEE8023

BIND IPX TO IEE8023 NET=11111

LOAD <DRIVER> FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=IEE8022

BIND IPX TO LAN8022 NET=22222

<DRIVER> is the filename of the adapter driver.
