When you are finished entering all the information, the SunPCi III software reboots again into Windows 2000 Server.

To complete the process, you need to install the appropriate Service Pack. See “Microsoft Windows Service Packs” on page 20.

Configuring Virtual Ethernet

Networking for Windows 2000

The SunPCi III software comes with physical Ethernet networking enabled by default. If you prefer to use virtual networking instead of physical networking, you need to disable the physical Ethernet adapter in Microsoft Windows and install the virtual Ethernet adapter.

Note – When more than one SunPCi III card is installed in a system, virtual networking is disabled by the SunPCi III software.

Caution – Do not enable both virtual and physical networking at the same time, since unpredictable results and operations can happen.

For more information about physical and virtual Ethernet networking, refer to “Setting Up Networking With SunPCi III Hardware and Software” on page 33.
