Finding the Adapter’s Port Number

adapters in a client computer, you must know each adapter’s
port number. To find the adapter’s port number after
inserting the adapters, follow these steps.

EtherDisk diskette.

a Boot the computer under DOS.

b Insert the EtherDisk diskette in a floppy drive and make

that drive the active one.

c At the prompt, type:

INSTALL [Enter]

The main menu appears.

2 Select

Configuration/Diagnostic/Troubleshooting, and

press [Enter].

3 Select

Configuration and Diagnostic Program and press

[Enter].

The next screen lists the installed adapters.

4 Select each adapter individually, press [Enter], and select

Display Configuration.

The port number appears with each listed adapter.

5 Exit the program.

If you are using an ODI driver with multiple adapters already
installed and you have not updated the NET.CFG file, specify
which adapter you want the driver to recognize by adding
the port number to the NET.CFG file using the PORT XXX
parameter, where XXX is the port number.
