Fast Ethernet Network Interface Cards

Note:

To reconfigure the NICs, use the foconfig utility

installed during this process. The fosetup diskette can be

put away. See Reconfiguring Using foconfig.nlm on page 10-12

As the present driver uses 32 receive buffers for each port, you may

need to increase the number of receive buffers. To do this, type load

edit c:\nwserver\startup.ncf and insert the following commands at

the end of the file:

SET MINIMUM PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS = 512

SET MAXIMUM PACKET RECEIVE BUFFERS = 1024

Viewing System Status Using fostatus.nlm

Type load fostatus at the server prompt to load the Failover status

module.

Note:

This module automatically appears on initial bootup

after the Failover software has been installed.
