To connect an installed Intel PRO⁄1000 MT card
to the ISS (ISIS switch):
1 Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into the
Intel PRO⁄1000 MT card’s Ethernet port.

Installing the Intel PRO⁄1000 MT
Driver
Once the Intel PRO⁄1000 MT Ethernet card is
physically installed in your computer, you must
install the appropriate driver.
If your system has a DVD drive, you can install it
directly from the Avid Unity ISIS DVD. If you do
not have a DVD drive, you need to use another
means (such as a network connection) to trans-
fer the necessary driver from the Avid Unity ISIS
DVD to your system.
To install the Intel PRO⁄1000 MT driver:
1 If you did not restart the system after install-
ing Intel PRO⁄1000 MT Ethernet card, do so
now.
After you restart your system, the following mes-
sage appears: “Looking for the Intel PRO/1000
MT driver.”
2 Cancel the message.
3 Insert the DVD into the DVD drive.
4 On the DVD, navigate to the following folder:
Tools_and_Thirdparty_Software/
Drivers_and_Firmware.
5 In the Drivers_and_Firmware folder, copy the
Intel_MT_Server_NIC folder to the desktop of
your system.
6 Navigate to the Intel_MT_Server_NIC folder
on your desktop, and go to Driver/Intel NIC
10.0 Avid.
7 Double click the Auto-run.exe file.
An Installer window opens.
8 Click Install Drivers.
A message window appears stating that the driv-
ers and other files that are needed are being in-
stalled. This may take some time to complete.
When the message window closes, the installa-
tion is complete.
Setting the IP Address of the
Intel PRO⁄1000 MT Card
After installing the Intel PRO/1000 MT Ethernet
card and connecting it to the appropriate ISIS
switch, you must set the IP address, subnet
mask, and default gateway of the Ethernet card.
These settings match those of the ISS (ISIS
Switch) to which the card is connected.
Before adding these settings, obtain the follow-
ing information regarding the ISS Switch to
which you connected the Ethernet card:
• IP Address
•Subnet Mask
•Default Gateway
See your ISIS administrator for details.
