Installing a NetWare Server Driver 3-19

Using the Bind Command After loading the driver, use the Bind command to bind each NIC to a protocol. Enter the command from the server console command prompt, or include the command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file to automatically bind the driver when you start the SERVER program.

bind {ipx ip} [to] <name drivername>

{net=<number> addr=<number>}

IPX IP The name of the protocol to which you are binding the driver (IPX or IP). If you specify IP, other parameters

are required; consult your TCP/IP documentation for more information.

Name (Optional.) The name you assigned to the logical board with the Load command. If you use a logical board name, do not specify DRIVERNAME.

Drivername The name of the driver you are using. Do not use Drivername if you assigned a logical board name with the NAME parameter.

NET=<number> (IPX protocol only.) The unique IPX internal network number you have assigned to this network. It is a hexadecimal number up to eight characters long. For example:

net=5A

ADDR=<number> (TCP/IP protocol only.) The NIC’s network address. The address must be unique on the internetwork. For example:

addr=192.45.67.8

To view the current configuration, enter the CONFIG command at the server’s console command prompt.
