Copying the driver from the
ATMDisk
diskette to the hard
drive of the server is a standard NetWare driver installation
operation, performed manually or by using the standard
NetWare install utility. This guide documents the use of the
NetWare install utility.
After the ATMLink NIC network driver (3C975.LAN) has been
copied to the server system directory, the driver is modified
with the NetWare install utility to configure the parameters of
the first LEC. During this process the NIC can also be
configured for resilient server links. When all the LEC
parameters or resilient link parameters have been set, the
installation program saves the parameters, loads the driver,
and modifies the AUTOEXEC.NCF file by adding appropriate
load
and
bind
command lines.
To configure additional LECs, you must modify the same
3C975.LAN driver. Resilient server links and LECs can be
configured manually by editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
Procedures for manually editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF file and
for unloading network drivers are included at the end of this
chapter.
NetWare 4.x supports up to 4 3C975 ATMLink NICs per system,
with up to 16 LECs per NIC. NetWare 3.12 supports up to four
NICs per system and one LEC per NIC.
