team support hardware checksums. Be sure to load the adapter drivers with hardware checksums enabled. Default is ON.

Example: A team of two adapters with hardware checksums enabled.

LOAD QASP.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=Q57_1_EII CHECKSUM=ON VSLOT=1

LOAD ODINEB.NLM

LOAD Q57.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=Q57_1_EII CHECKSUM=ON SLOT=1 LOAD Q57.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=Q57_2_EII CHECKSUM=ON SLOT=2 BIND QASP1 Q57_1_EII

BIND QASP1 Q57_2_EII

•NOSCREEN. This keyword disables the menu-driven screen when QASP.LAN is loaded for the first time. By default, this screen/menu interface will be loaded when QASP.LAN is loaded and cannot be turned off without unloading QASP.LAN.

Example:

LOAD QASP.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=QASP_1_EII VSLOT=1 NOSCREEN

•GVRP. This keyword enables GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) for the VLAN that is loaded. An untagged 802.2 frame type must be loaded in the virtual adapter and all bound physical adapters for GVRP to take effect. This is necessary because GVRP uses untagged 802.2 frames to advertise VLAN memberships. Use VLAN=0 FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 in the LOAD command to specify untagged 802.2 frame type.

Example:

LOAD QASP.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=QASP_1_V2_EII VSLOT=1 VLAN=2 GVRP LOAD QASP.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_802.2 NAME=QASP_1_E82 VSLOT=1 VLAN=0

Editing the AUTOEXEC.NCF file

When an adapter configuration is saved, the NetWare install program adds load and bind statements to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. By accessing this file, you can verify the parameters configured for each adapter, add or delete parameters, or modify parameters.

A valid AUTOEXEC.NCF file is shown below with various VLAN and teaming examples.

•Example 1: Team of 2 network adapters with frame type Ethernet_II and one VLAN, number 2. Load QASP.LAN with the frame types and VLAN ID(s) specified.

LOAD ODINEB.NLM

LOAD QASP.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=QASP_1_V2_EII VSLOT=1 VLAN=2

Load the network drivers for the adapters in the team with the same frames types.

LOAD Q57.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=Q57_1_EII SLOT=1 VLAN=1 LOAD Q57.LAN FRAME=ETHERNET_II NAME=Q57_2_EII SLOT=2 VLAN=1

Bind QASP.LAN to the adapters in the team for each protocol.

BIND QASP1 Q57_1_EII BIND QASP1 Q57_2_EII

Bind protocols to QASP.LAN.

BIND IP QASP_1_V2_EII ADDR=192.168.2.200 MASK=255.255.255.0

•Example 2: Team of two network adapters with frame type Ethernet_II and three VLANs, number 2, 3, and 4.
