UPDATE

DESCRIPTION

1st Edition

First release of manual, no changes.

Update 1

Printed circuit board components changed to correct a timing

 

problem in NOVRAM support circuitry. Assembly 12076"60001

 

date code advanced to B"2614.

 

The driver name was changed from •ID.67" to •ID*67". Also,

 

the product structure was modified to provide the driver, Node

 

Manager software, and related modules with the operating

 

system, HP 92077A, RTE"A Version 4.1 (Rev 4010) or later.

Update 2

With RTE"A Version 5.0, or later, the Node Management

 

software was enhanced with a Command Stack feature. The

 

Command Stack is accessed from the user interface program,

 

NM.

 

In addition, the software now checks for the availability of the

 

driver packet read program, READR, when NM is run. If

 

READ1 is not restored or running, applicable error messages

 

are displayed.

2nd Edition

At the RTE 6.1 release, system table space required by the LAN

 

driver was significantly reduced; only one LU and DVT are now

 

required for each LAN card, and the LU can be odd or even.

 

(Previously, two consecutive LUs were used and the first had to

 

be an even"numbered LU.) The default IFT extension was

 

reduced from 204 words to 73 words; the READR program

 

(RPed as READ1 and READ2) is no longer required by the

 

LAN driver or Node Manager software; and %GEN67 which

 

contained default driver parameters is no longer used.

 

Driver and Node Manager software installation documentation

 

was pulled from the HP 12076A LAN/1000 Link Local Area

 

Network Interface Controller (LANIC) Installation Manual,

 

part number 12076"90001 and is now included as part of the

 

HP 12076A Node Manager's Manual, part number 12076"90002.
