Installing a NetWare Server Driver
3-19
Using the Bind Command
After loading the driver,
use the Bind command to bind each NIC to a protocol.
Enter the command from the server console command
prompt, or include the command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF
file to automatically bind the driver when you start the
SERVER program.
bind {ipx | ip} [to] <name | drivername>
{net=<number> | addr=<number>}
IPX | IP
The name of the protocol to which you are binding
the driver (IPX or IP). If you specify IP, other parameters
are required; consult your TCP/IP documentation for
more information.
Name
(Optional.) The name you assigned to the logical
board with the Load command. If you use a logical board
name, do not specify DRIVERNAME.
Drivername
The name of the driver you are using. Do
not use Drivername if you assigned a logical board name
with the NAME parameter.
NET=<number>
(IPX protocol only.) The unique IPX
internal network number you have assigned to this
network. It is a hexadecimal number up to eight
characters long. For example:
net=5A
ADDR=<number>
(TCP/IP protocol only.) The NIC’s
network address. The address must be unique on the
internetwork. For example:
addr=192.45.67.8
To view the current configuration, enter the CONFIG
command at the server’s console command prompt.
