To view the full text of the license agreement, press [F1].

A status message appears, followed by a prompt asking for the ring speed of your network.

4Enter the correct ring speed and configuration mode and press [Enter].

This adapter can run at 16 or 4 Mbps. The ring speed for the adapter and the network must be the same. Ask your system administrator for the correct ring speed.

Upon successful completion, a message appears, stating that the AutoLink program has completed the configuration.

5Remove the TokenDisk diskette and press any key to reboot your PC.

The login prompt for a NetWare server appears.

6Log in to the NetWare server using your user ID and password provided by your network administrator.

The 3C619C adapter is now a NetWare DOS ODI client. Installation and configuration are complete. If you have problems, see Chapter 7, “Troubleshooting,” for help.
