the following is for the initial installation from the install menu. skip this section if it is not your first time using the install menu.

    1. start the netware server by typing in the following commands:

    cd \nwserver

    server

    2. after booting up, type the following command:

    nwconfig

    3. select driver options → configure network drivers → select a driver.

    4. press the [insert] key to install an unlisted driver.

    5. insert the driver diskette into the floppy disk drive into your floppy drive.

    6. press the [enter] key to continue the installation or press [f3] to specify the directory which includes jt1odi.ldi, jt1odi.lan. for example, a:\netware\32bitlan (where a: is the floppy drive)

    7. select jt1odi.lan ....

    don't copy the nlm files to your system if the version of the ones on the installation disk are older than those already on your system.

    8. specify slot and node address if necessary.

    9. select save parameters and load driver after configuring the adapter settings.

    the netware server will now automatically load/bind the driver.

    if the driver files have already been copied to your system’s

    netware directory and you simply wish to load them:

    1. start the netware server by typing in the following commands:

    cd \nwserver

    server.

    2. after booting up, type the following command:

    nwconfig

    3. select "driver options" → "configure network drivers" → select a driver.

    4. select jt1odi.lan ... in the select a driver windows.

    5. specify slot and node address if necessary.

    6. select save parameters and load driver after configuring the adapter settings.

    the netware server will now automatically load/bind the driver.

    you will need to modify your netware 5.0 server’s autoexec file. to do so, please follow these steps:

    1. start the netware server by typing in the following commands:

    cd \nwserver

    server.

    2. from the novell server side, type the following command:

    nwconfig

    3. select [ncf files options].

    4. select [edit autoexec.ncf file].

    5. add the following items into the server's autoexec.ncf file:

    load c:\nwserver\nbi.nlm

    load c:\nwserver\msm.nlm

    load c:\nwserver\ethertsm.nlm

    load c:\nwserver\jt1odi slot=1

    frame=ethernet_802.3

    name=jt1odi_1_e83

    bind ipx jt1odi_1_e83 net=xxxx

    load c:\nwserver\jt1odi slot=1

    frame=ethernet_802.2

    name=jt1odi_1_e82

    bind ipx jt1odi_1_e82 net=xxxx

    load c:\nwserver\jt1odi slot=1

    frame=ethernet_ii

    name=jt1odi_1_eii

    bind ipx jt1odi_1_eii net=xxxx

    load c:\nwserver\jt1odi slot=1

    frame=ethernet_snap

    name=jt1odi_1_esp

    bind ipx jt1odi_1_esp net=xxxx

    6. restart the server again.

    parameters supported by the jt1odi.lan driver slot 1 – forces the driver to search for the specified card.

    fullduplex – the full-duplex parameter causes the jt1odi to operate in full-duplex mode. when operating in full-duplex mode, the jt1odi can simultaneously transmit and receive packets.

    autonegotiate – the auto-negotiate parameter causes the jt1odi to auto negotiate the duplex mode and link speed with the device being connected.

    txdmathreshold – the txdmathereshold determines the i/o method used to move transmit packets from host memory to the jt1odi memory. the valid range for the txdmathreshold is 0 - 1514. the default value is 800.

    disablerxip – disables the jt1odi tcp/ip receive packet checksum support. by default, the jt1odi will perform tcp/ip checksum verification on received packets in hardware if the operating system supports this capability.

    due to the large number of network operating systems (noss) supported, detailed driver software installation instructions are given in readme.txt files on the 1000mbps gigabit ethernet card software diskette.

    review the root directory readme for overview information.

    for detailed installation instructions see the readme and referenced instruction files in the subdirectory corresponding to your network operating system.
