Special Considerations II. Files Needed for Installation III. Installation I. Special Considerations ========================== Configuration of the AT-2400 is under PCI control. For most applications, no setup other than normal installation of the network software is necessary. Run the CardAssistant setup utility, SET2400.EXE, to view the card's configuration, to change to full-duplex mode (with a full-duplex hub), or to run Diagnostics. The SET2400 utility only runs on DOS. II. Files Needed for Installation ================================= The following files are required for installation: \AT2400.COM Packet driver \TXT\OTHERS\PACKET.TXT This file III. Installation ================== 1. Load the packet driver using the software interrupt and any optional switches if required. Usage: AT2400 [options] Example: AT2400 -i 0x7e The only required parameter is the software interrupt. A packet driver needs to have a software interrupt assigned to it for other programs to access it. The recommended interrupt 0x7e. If you need any of the options listed below, place them before the software interrupt on the command line. -i - Force driver to report itself as 802.3 instead of Ethernet II. -d - Delayed initialization. Used for diskless booting -n - NetWare conversion. Converts 802.3 packets into 8137 packets -w - Windows hack, obsoleted by winpkt -p - Promiscuous mode disable -h - Help -u - Uninstall 2. Type the command C:\PACKET 0x60. A parameters message appears in the following form: System: [345]86 processor, PCI bus, Two 2400s Packet driver software interrupt is 0x60 Interrupt number is 0x9 I/O port is 0xFF80 My Ethernet address is xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx 3. Installing Multiple LAN Adapters: If there are multiple network cards on the main board and you run AT2400 0x60 directly, the screen displays: Packet driver for AT2400, PCI version 1.00 Copyright 1998 (c), Allied Telesyn International. There are 2 network cards on your main board : Card 1. IRQ= 0x9 I/O= 0x6100 NodeID= 52:54:4C:29:29:AD Card 2. IRQ= 0xA I/O= 0x6000 NodeID= 52:54:4C:29:29:64 Please select a Card No.(1-2): 1 System: [345]86 processor, PCI bus, Two 8259s Packet driver software interrupt is 0x60 Interrupt number is 0x9 I/O port is 0x6100 My Ethernet address is 52:54:4C:29:29:AD * Third-party trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
