Special Considerations ========================== Configuration of the AT-2500TX is under PCI control, and the AT-2500TX is NWAY capable. For most applications, no setup other than normal installation of the network software is necessary. For any half-duplex application, the card by default auto-detects the speed of the link (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps). If the connection is full-duplex without NWAY capability, you must select one of the full-duplex settings. In this case, refer to the "Connection speed and duplex" information file. II. Files Needed for Installation ================================= The following files are required for installation: \IBMLAN.OS2\A25v3.NIF (information file) \IBMLAN.OS2\A25v3.OS2 (driver for OS/2 LAN Server) \INFO\OS2.TXT (this file) III. Installing NDIS driver on OS/2 =================================== Before you start with the installation process, make sure that OS/2 is properly installed. Similarly, your adapter should also be properly installed in your server. 1. In the OS/2 setup window, Click the "MPTS" icon. 2. The screen will display the IBM Log, press "OK". 3. Select the "Configure" button. 4. Select "Configure" LAN adapters and protocols. 5. Select the "Other adapters..." button. 6. Insert the CardAssistant diskette, specify the driver path A:\IBMLAN.OS2 and select OK. 7. Select the appropriate protocols and select "OK". The installation is now complete. IV. Removing an Existing Driver ================================ To de-installation the NDIS2 driver, use the MPTS icon, highlight the driver and select remove. V. How to See MAC Address ========================= To determine a MAC address for a card: 1. Boot the computer into DOS with no drivers loaded. 2. Insert the CardAssistant diskette in the floppy drive and launch SETUP25: type a:\setup25. 3. The main screen shows a table listing the AT-2500 Fast Ethernet cards installed in the computer. Write down the address(es) listed in the "MAC" column of the table. * Third-party trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
