D PCI 10/100Base-TX/3000 Quick Installation

The PCI 10/100Base-TX adapter card (A5230A) for the HP e3000 supports 10Mbits/s and 100Mbits/s Fast Ethernet operation as well as full and half-duplex modes. Ensure that the speed, duplex, and autonegotiation settings of the associated data hub or switch match the settings on this card (as configured in the network configuration file, NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS). Refer to the sections on “Notes on Manual Speed and Duplex Mode Configuration” and “Notes on Autonegotiation and Autosensing” in this appendix for background information on determining these settings, if needed. For a detailed description of using NMMGR to configure the 10/100Base-TX link in your NMCONFIG file, see the NS 3000/iX NMMGR Screens Reference Manual.

1.Verify the PCI 10/100Base-TX software is present in the installed version of MPE/iX (must be 7.0 or later).

Make sure MPE/iX 7.0 has been successfully installed on the system. The PCI 10/100Base-TX software license is included with MPE/iX 7.0. No additional software installation is required.

Run the NMMAINT,78 command and verify complete version information is displayed for the PCI 100Base-TX link software (subsystem 78).
