Software Requirements

NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 is based on the NetWare

Network Operating System (NOS) and is compatible with NetWare

3.12 and NetWare 4.1. For your convenience in building standalone

routers, NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 includes

Novell® DOS

software, NetWare 3.12 Runtime, and NetWare 4.1

(two-user version); however, you can also install NetWare MultiPro-

tocol Router for ISDN 3.1 on a server or router that is already config-

ured with NetWare 3.12 or NetWare 4.1

If the server you are upgrading has a NetWare license of more that two

users and you do not want to downgrade the number of users on that

server to two, you must get a NetWare license with the appropriate number

of users for that server before installing NetWare MultiProtocol Router for

ISDN 3.1.

If you are upgrading a multi-user version of NetWare 4.0x to Net-

Ware 4.1, once you have a license with the number of users you

want, you can use the NetWare 4.1 installation to upgrade your

version of NetWare. When the installation program prompts you for

a License Disk, insert the License Disk containing the correct number

of users.

In some circumstances, installing to NetWare 4.1 more than once on the

same server might cause you to have duplicate binds in the INETCFG

database. If when using INETCFG you notice duplicate binds, delete the

duplicates. Selecting one of the duplicates might cause the server to abend.

NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1 can also be used in

combination with other NLM files that run on NetWare 3.12 or

NetWare 4.1. Some likely combinations include Novell´s

WAN

Extensions 3.1 software, Novell´s NetWare for SAA software,

AVM´s NetWare Connect for ISDN software and network manage-

ment products. See section "Integration with Other Products" below

for information on what to consider and which problems could arise.

To manage your NetWare MultiProtocol Router for ISDN 3.1, the

MPR for ISDN Router Manager software may be purchased from

AVM for integration in Novell´s ManageWise

or NMS

products.
