4-6 CHAPTER 4: NETWARE SERVER DRIVER INSTALLATION

A NIC configured as a standby NIC does not require other keyword parameters or a bind command, because it assumes the configuration profile of the active NIC. For more information on editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, see the section “Editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF File” later in this chapter.

Loading the Server Driver

The following procedure describes the installation procedure for Novell NetWare 4.10. In NetWare version 3.12, LECs must be manually configured by editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF. In NetWare version 4.11, the install utility user interface differs slightly from that shown in this user guide.

Before You Begin

Perform the following operations before loading the ATMLink NetWare drivers:

■Load the NLMs provided by 3Com on the ATMDisk diskette:

■NBI.NLM

■MSM.NLM

■ETHERTSM.NLM

■TOKENTSM.NLM

The NLMs for NetWare version 3.12 are also on the ATMDisk diskette. See the README.TXT file for further information.

■Set the number of minimum packet receive buffers in the STARTUP.NCF file.

Use the following syntax to set the number of minimum packet buffers required for the ATMLink NICs:

Minimum Packet Receive Buffers=<# of buffers>

where <# of buffers>= 64 * number of ATMLink NICs
