Configuring the Network Interface
The PCI integrated Ethernet interface configures itself automatically. SETUP allows you to:
•
Enable or disable Remote Start, and select the protocol used.
•
Enable (default) or disable the PCI integrated Ethernet interface.
•
View the MAC address, if the adapter was previously enabled.
When the integrated interface field is set to Disabled, the MAC Address field is set to
Not Used.
•
Enable or disable
Start With Keyboard Locked
.
The
LAN Administrator Guide
supplied with the PC contains step-by-step information on
configuring the network.
You will need to ask the Network Administrator to install network drivers and configure the
network so it will work with the PC.
NOTE
Under certain circumstances you may be asked to insert a LAN Driver diskette in
drive A.
In this case, you should either use the LAN driver diskette which you created with
the Master Diskette Creation Utility, or you should type
C:MASTERS\LANDRV\DISK1
.
Enabling Remote Program Load
The
Remote Program Load
group of fields enable the PC to start from a server.
The
Remote Start
field allows you either to disable
Remote Program Load
or to select
the type of network your PC is connected to. When
Remote Start
is enabled, you must
disable
Starting From Hard Disk
described in
Configuring the Security Features
earlier in this chapter.
The
Protocol
field tells the PC which network operating system is used. (It is automatically
set to Not Used if
Remote Start
is Disabled.)

None.
2. Highlight the

field, and press
