Emulex DCP_link manual Factory Default Settings

2-2 Chapter 2

DCP_link features an 80x86 microprocessor based “intelligent” WAN adapter to provide powerful co-processing capabilities. The adapter utilizes 1Mb of on-board shared memory to transfer commands and data to the NetWare server. DMA channels are included to support full-duplex operation.

This chapter describes the factory default configuration of the DCP286i/386i/486e and tells how to configure the board for WAN applications.

Factory Default Settings

This factory default configuration is correct for all WAN applications:

•DCP286i, DCP386i and DCP486e compatibility level

•1 Megabyte memory size

•Window Group Select 16K, 32K, 64K, 1MB

•Control Register 4 Read option enabled

IMPORTANT: The base I/O address and the IRQ level must not be in conflict with any other adapter on the server. Verify that both the base I/O address and the interrupt level (IRQ setting) configured on the adapter match the software configuration. For more information, refer to Chapter 6.

Verify that the following factory default parameters are appropriate for your server environment. If you can use the factory default configuration, refer to the DCP_link Quick Start User’s Guide.

Base I/O address	33C hex
Interrupt Level (IRQ)	3
Data clock direction	DTE
