Once you exit the ISMC9000 pro gram, the serial EEPROM is
updated and the values you selected are loaded into the 91C92 the
next time you boot the machine.

At this point, you need to install the appropriate network driver
unless you can use one of the network drivers included with the
operating system. For example, some operating systems may not
include TCP/IP.
If the driver you need is not supplied in the
c:\images\enet
directory, you can either contact National Instruments for help on
finding the driver you need or, if you have internet access, you can
access the Microsoft WWW or FTP sites , which contain some
standard network drivers.
To install the network driver, follow the instructions in the
appropriate driver installation document.
Technical Information about the Ethernet Interface
The SMC 91C92 provides the designer with the ability to select
external or internal I/O decoding and the ability to select whether or not
it responds to 16-bit accesses . The 91C92 on the VXIpc-850 decodes
its own addresses (the ENDEC* pin is tied high) and is enabled for
16-bit accesses (EN16* is tied low).
