5. Select a Bus I/O Address that is not currently in use.

6. If any ISA adapter is installed, check for available Bus Memory values by

entering the following command:

lsresource -l bus -a | grep bus_mem

This command generates a list of adapters using different Bus Memory
Addresses that looks similar to the following:

B

ampx

bus_mem_addr

x

e

- x

e1fff

B

apm

bus_mem_addr

x

e2

- x

e3fff

B

ent

bus_mem_addr

x

c

- x

c3fff

B

gga

bus_mem_start

x 1

- x 1ffffff

7. Select a Bus Memory that is not currently in use.

The valid Bus Memory values for use with the ISA Ethernet Adapter start at
0xc0000 and increment by 0x04000. For example, they are 0xc4000, 0xc8000,
and so on. The previous example shows

ent

is using the first Bus Memory

range of 0Xc0000.

8. Install the ISA Ethernet Adapter device driver and diagnostic by choosing:

smit isa

Install ISA Adapter Software

to install the fileset

device.isa.ethernet

9. After installing the software, you might enter:

smit isa

Add an ISA Adapter

10. Select ethernet isa IBM Ethernet ISA Adapter from the SMIT pop-up menu.

11. Select bus1 Available ISA Bus from the following SMIT pop-up menu.

12. From the menu described in Figure 40 on page 128, select the correct

Interrupt Level, Bus I/O Address, Bus Memory and Media Type values, and
press Enter.
