Installing PeerMaster LAN Software
Adding the following commands to your AUTOEXEC.NCF file will
cause your PeerMaster adapters to form a network that is a hybrid
composed of two 4-segment virtual networks (VNETs) and four
traditional networks. Cross-segment traffic within each 4-segment
VNET is switched by your PeerMaster adapters. Cross-segment
traffic entering or leaving a VNET, or between traditional network
segments, is routed internally by your server.
The load command for the VNET.LAN driver provides keywords
that request the driver to include specific adapters into the VNET.
You can load the VNET.LAN driver multiple times to create
multiple VNETs. The keywords to include a specific adapter into a
VNET are i1, i2, ... i6. The keyword i1 indicates a request to include
the adapter in physical slot 1 into the VNET being formed, i2
indicates the adapter in slot 2, and so on. You can name each
VNET separately, using the NAME keyword on the load command.
Each VNET, when being bound to a protocol, must be assigned a
unique network number. The following example illustrates the
loading of multiple VNETs.
