Chapter 1: Network Adapter Card Overview When you install a PCI 2.2-compatible adapter in a PCI 2.2-compliant computer, the Wake on LAN cable is unnecessary because the feature is controlled through the connector bus on the network adapter card and the system’s motherboard. Note Wake on LAN is not supported when a PCI 2.1-compliant adapter, such as the AT-2450FTX Series, is installed in a PCI 2.2-compliant computer.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide Note The Installation CD that comes with your network adapter card has two drivers for Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, or XP system. There is a regular driver and an enhanced driver that supports load balancing and fail-over (LBFO) protection. The AT-Setup utility can be used to install the regular driver. To install the LBFO driver, you must install it manually.
Chapter 1: Network Adapter Card Overview adapter card to process tagged traffic from up to 16 different VLANs. The protocol is described in Chapter 9, “AT-MUX Multiple VLAN Protocol” on page 157. Note The AT-MUX protocol is compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, and XP operating systems. You cannot use this protocol with any other operating system.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide Diagnostics and the AT-Diag Utility Included on the Allied Telesyn Installation CD is the AT-Diag utility. This program is useful in testing and configuring a network adapter card. Functions include: Testing a network adapter card. Performing a link test between an adapter port and a remote device, such as an Ethernet switch or hub. Setting the speed and duplex mode of an adapter port. Enabling or disabling the BootPROM chip and MBA.
Chapter 1: Network Adapter Card Overview There are two versions of the load balancing feature: mode 1 and mode 2. The basic characteristics of mode 1 are: Both adapters use the same MAC address, but different IP addresses. The ports on the two adapter cards must be connected to the same remote device. The basic characteristics of mode 2 are: Both adapters use different MAC addresses and IP addresses.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide Fail-over Protection Another feature of the LBFO driver is fail-over protection. This feature is useful in situations where a network device could benefit from link redundancy, but not necessarily load balancing. The fail-over feature protects against a loss of network connectivity should an adapter lose its link to a remote device or the remote device loses power or is taken out of service, such as for maintenance.
Chapter 1: Network Adapter Card Overview The selection of the active adapter is determined by the network driver and the computer’s operating system. The active, primary adapter is determined by whichever adapter establishes a link with its remote device first. If the primary adapter loses its link with its remote device, the redundant adapter automatically changes to the primary function and remains as the primary adapter until such time as the status of its link changes.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide Managed Boot Agent The managed boot agent (MBA) and the BootPROM chip allow you to perform pre-boot procedures on a system, such as installing an operating system, running a virus checker, or downloading a predefined system configuration. You can couple this feature with the Wake on LAN feature to perform configuration and maintenance tasks during non-work hours so as not to interfere with the work of your network users.

Chapter 9 AT-MUX Multiple VLAN Protocol This chapter describes the AT-MUX protocol.
Chapter 9: AT-MUX Multiple VLAN Protocol AT-MUX Protocol Overview The AT-MUX protocol is useful in Ethernet networks where there are tagged virtual LANs (VLAN). You can use the protocol to assign up to 16 VLAN identifiers (VID) to an adapter so that it can process and transmit tagged traffic from multiple tagged VLANs. Note The AT-MUX protocol is supported on Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, and XP systems only. The system must have the latest Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, or XP Ndis 5 driver (version 4.1.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide window. An alternative is to open the Properties window of a LAN connection.) The original LAN connection for the adapter remains in the Network Connections window and is identified by the card’s model number in the icon’s label and in the card’s Properties window. This is illustrated in Figure 91 where two VLANs have been added to a system. Figure 91.
Chapter 9: AT-MUX Multiple VLAN Protocol To adjust the properties of a VLAN connection, you must use the corresponding tagged VLAN connection icon. Since each VLAN is considered a separate connection, you can adjust the properties individually. This is illustrated in Figure 92 on page 161. The figure shows the Network Connections window with three LAN connections, one for the adapter and two others for tagged VLANs.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide Figure 92. Relationship Between the LAN Connections and the Properties Windows To summarize, you must use the network adapter card’s LAN connection to add, modify, or delete VIDs. To adjust the protocol settings for a VLAN connection, such as print or file sharing, or to set the IP configuration, use the VLAN’s corresponding LAN connection.
Chapter 9: AT-MUX Multiple VLAN Protocol Installing the AT-MUX Protocol This procedure explains how to install the AT-MUX protocol on a Microsoft Window 2000, 2003, or XP system.

Chapter 11 Troubleshooting This chapter contains suggestions on what to do if you encounter a problem using your new network adapter card. Note In the following discussions the term “remote device” refers to the device to which the port on the network adapter card is connected. Examples include Ethernet switches and hubs. The LINK LED is off: Verify that the system in which the adapter card is installed is powered on and is operating correctly.
Chapter 11: Troubleshooting For a fiber optic port, verify that the operating specifications (for instance, wavelength and maximum operating distance) of the fiber optic port on the remote device are compatible with the fiber optic port on the network adapter card. For example, a fiber optic port with an operating wavelength of 1310 nm will not function if connected to a remote fiber optic port with an operating wavelength of 820 nm.
Network Adapter Card Installation Guide If possible, use another twisted pair or fiber optic cable to connect the network adapter card to the remote device. If this resolves the problem, replace the failed cable. For a dual port card, verify that only one port is connected to the network. Run the AT-Diag utility and perform the Diagnostics Test to test the network adapter card’s components. For instructions, refer to Chapter 10, “AT-Diag Utility” on page 175.
Chapter 11: Troubleshooting For a fiber optic port, verify that the port on the network adapter card and the port on the remote device are operating with the same duplex mode. All of the adapters described in this guide have a default setting of full-duplex for the fiber optic port.
