Installation Summary
These brief installation instructions are for experienced
token ring network users. Less experienced users should
use the detailed hardware and driver installation
instructions beginning in Chapter 2.
1 Install the 3C339 NIC in a PCI slot that supports
bus mastering.
2 Connect a token ring cable between the NIC and a
hub, a multistation access unit (MAU), a controlled
access unit (CAU), or a token ring switch.
3 Power on the PC.
At power up, the PC system BIOS automatically
configures the NIC’s base I/O address (port address) and
interrupt request (IRQ) line. You cannot change these
settings, but you can set other parameters or run
diagnostics with the 3TLVDIAG configuration and
diagnostic program, located on
TokenDisk diskette #1.
4 Install the network driver from the TokenDisk
diskettes.
The default ring speed is 16 Mbps.
