Configure a mobile client board that is mobile aware and supports
PCMCIA card in/card out capability, in-range and out-of-range
capability, and NESL.
To configure a mobile client, complete the following steps:
1
Open the client's STARTNET.BAT file using a text editor.
A typical STARTNET.BAT file looks something like this:
@ECHO OFF
SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH
CD NWCLIENT
LSL
driver
IPXODI
VLM /ps=server_name
CD \
2
Add the following changes, indicated in bold, in the order shown:
@ECHO OFF
SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH
CD NWCLIENT
LSL
NESL
driver
IPXODI /M
VLM /ps=server_name
CD \
NESL must be loaded for the mobile client to be activated. NetWare
Mobile IPX reacts to changes in the system, such as location and the
client's adapter board. The MAC driver is the system module that knows
of these events (for example, out of range of access point coverage, card
insertion or removal, and so on) and notifies IPX of such changes through
NESL.
The IPXODI
/M
switch enables the NetWare Mobile IPX client
software.
