It has been configured as "SELF CONFIGURATION". Program will be able to detect switch setting and configure the workstation LAN driver automatically. Copy DOS IPX driver (BTEIPX.COM) to your drive. Load the DOS IPX LAN driver for BT-560A/T or BT-763E ethernet adapter driver: BTEIPX NETX See Novell Shell-gen or Workstation-gen for more detail if you need to regenerate the DOS IPX driver. ****************************************************************** * * LAN Driver for NetWare 286 file server v1.15 or v2.20 * ****************************************************************** Netware 286 v2.20 installation procedures: - Make a duplicate copy of the SYSTEM-1 Netware installation diskette - Copy file "BTE22.LAN" from BT560/763 driver diskette into the Netware SYSTEM-1 diskette. - Follow Netware installation procedures to install Netware 286 File BTE22.LAN and (ABTE22,BBTE22,CBTE22,DBTE22.OBJ) are for Netware 286 v2.15 or higher. They have built-in features to Auto-Scan the switch settings or EISA configuration to configure the driver. For Netware 286 v2.1x and 2.20 IPX driver: We recommend that you configure the BTE22 LAN driver to: First Software Configured Adapter If more than one BT-560/763 Adapter is installed, then configure the second BT-560/763 adapter (LAN-B) driver as: Second Software Configured Adapter If you install a third BT-560/763 adapter, then configure it as : Third Software Configured Adapter The BTE22 LAN Device Driver scans for the BT-763 starting from slot 1 to 15; Then scans the BT-560A/T I/O port base from High to Low; After this, the assigned LAN drivers are ordered by Slot or I/O port as listed below: I/O Port: 340h 320h 300h 160h 140h 120h 100h As a result, the First Software Configured Driver will be assigned as the EISA slot or highest I/O port, whichever it finds first. Use "CONFIG" command at system Console to view the Detail information, about Slot#, I/O port base, IRQ, DMA assigment of each LAN driver. Note: These new Drivers will force all BusLogic Bs-560/763 Ethernet adapter to conform to IEEE assigned node ID. If you upgrade your existing workstation software driver, make sure to preset your workstation Configuration to use the new Ethernet node ID. Use DCONFIG to select configuration other than Configuration-0, or use JUMPERS utility to configure the workstation driver to the corresponding switch settings (I/O Address, IRQ, DMA). ************************************************************* * * BusLogic BT-560A/T and BT-763E DOS ODI Driver * ************************************************************* The NET.CFG file is used by the various ODI modules to obtain the network system configuration information at initialization time. So, if you want to override the default settings, create a NET.CFG file with the following possible parameters for the Driver 560/763. DMA [#n] channel e.g. DMA #1 7 Int [#n] line e.g. Int #1 9 Port [#n] addr [range] e.g. Port 300 Slot n e.g. Slot 3 Node Address h e.g. Node Address 004034001234 Frame e.g. Frame Ethernet_II Protocol h e.g. Protocol IPX 8137 Ethernet_II ; Example NET.CFG file; this file is functional, it ; uses hardware settings other than default as well ; as a Node Address override. It also shows how to ; create this file if more than 1 card is installed ; in the workstation.
