Using Memory Management 3-15

2Make a note of the name of the directory (default is LSP) where the LSP is installed. You will have to specify this name when LANAID asks for the directory containing your LSP.INI file during step 2. Also, if you are using a locally administered address, edit the LSP.INI file and add:

netaddress=yyyyyyyyyyyy

where yyyyyyyyyyyy is the 12-digit hexadecimal address.

3Configure the 3C389 PC Card using the LANAID program (See Chapter 4).

4If LANAID is not already installed, go to the section “Installing LANAID” in Chapter 4.

5After LANAID is installed, continue with Chapter 4 “Using LANAID to Configure the 3C389 PC Card.”

When you get to the panel that asks for the existing network operating system, select IBM LSP/Native.

Using Memory Management

If you are using Card and Socket Services, the program will default to Autoset mode, which allows the LAN driver to negotiate with Card and Socket Services for available resources. LANAID will allow you to select values for resources to be used by your 3C389 PC Card such as Interrupt, memory, and I/O Base Address.

If you are not using Card and Socket Services in Autoset mode, you must ensure that the values that you select for Interrupt, MMIO, and SRAM do not conflict with those for other PC Cards and resources installed in your PC (such as video, sound, COM port).

If you are using EMM386, in most cases the memory exclusions will be automatically handled by LANAID. If you are using a memory manager, you must exclude the memory ranges being used by your 3C389 PC Card

(8 KB default).

IBM LAN Support Program/Native Installation is complete.
