Intel® PRO/100+ Client Adapter Installation Guide September 1998


Put the Adapter in the Computer NOTE: if you are replacing an axisting adapter with the PRO/100+ adapter in Windows® 95, see the section Removing an Existing Adapter in Windows 95 later in this guide. 1 Sbut down Windows (if it‘s running) by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Shut Down. 2 Turn off the computer and unplug the power cord. Then removeits cover. sg WARNING: Turn off and unplug power to the computer before removing its cover. Failure to do so could shack you and may damage the adapter or com— puter. 3 Remove the cover bracket from a PCI busmaster adapterslot. Most computers have busmaster—enabled slots. If you bave configuration problems, see your computer‘s documentation to determineif the PCI slots are busmnaster—enabled. 4 If you bave a PRO/100+ Management Adapter, and want to enable the Wake On LAN* feature, see the section Connect the Wake On LAN Power Cable later in this guide before completing the rest of these steps. 5 Choose an empty bus mastering PCI slot and remove its backplate by unscrewing the screw which secures it. 6 Insert the PRO/100+ adapter into a PCI slot and pushit into the slot until it‘s firmly seated. Then secure the adapter bracket with the screw you removed in step 5. 7 Replace the computer cover and plug in the power cord.

Connect the Network Cable 1 Connect a Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) network cable to the adapter as shown below. * For 100BASE—TX, your network cable must be Category 5, twisted— pair wiring. If you plan to run the adapter at 100 Mbps, it must be con— nected to a 100BASE—TX hub or switch (not a 100BASE—T4 bub). * For 10BASE—T, use Category 3, 4, or 5 twisted—pair wiring. If you want to use this adapter in a residential environment, you must use a Category 5 cable. NOTE: Use a Category 5 TPE cable and an RJ—45 connector for this adapter. Do not use Category 3 wir— ing at 100 Mbps. At 100 Mbps, connect to a TX hub, not a T4 hub. For full duplex, see the section Duplex Mode later in this guide. For more information on 100BASE—TX wiring requirements and limitations, see Fast Ethernet Wiring in the PCI Installation Tips section later in this quide. 2 To configure the adapter, continue with the procedures specific to your operating system outlined later in this guide. Conn ect the Wake on LAN Power Cable {Included with Management Adapters Only) For the Wake on LAN (WOL) feature to work correctly, the adapter must be connected to a continuous power source. This allows the PRO/100+ adapter to "listen to" the network even when the computer is turned off. To install the WOL power cable, carefully follow the procedure beflow. A WARNING: Turn off and unplug power to the computer before installing the WOL cable. The WOL connector on your motherboard is live when the com— puter is plugged in to a power outlet. Failure to do so could damage the adapter or computer. Likewise, always unplug the computer prior to removing an adapter from the computer. 1. Make sure your computeris unplugged from the power outlet. Locate the WOL connector on the PRO/100+ adapter. Attach one end of the WOL cable to the adapter as shown in the diagram that follows. Note that the connectoris notched so as to prevent incorrect attachment.

3 Locate the WOL connector on your motherboard. The location varies, depending on the vendor and model of motherboard. The WOL connector is usually located near other power connectors, such as the LED connec— tors. 4 Connect the other end of the WOL cable to the connector on the mother— board as shown in the diagram. 5 Some computers may require you to change a setting in your computer‘s BIOS or Setup program to enable the WOL feature. Check your computer owner‘s manual or contact your dealer for more information. 6 Replace the computer cover and plug in the power cord. Using Wake on LAN The Wake on LAN feature operates according to a published specification. In simple terms, the specification allows designers to build network adapters that are capable of "listening to" network activity even when the computer is turned off. WOL adapters have a special low—power standby mode that is active when the rest of the computer is without power. The adapter will respond to a special "wake—up" packet sent by another computer or network device. Typically this wake—up packet causes the adapter to signal the computer to power up and run a pre—defined program.

The wake—up packet structure and bebavior is defined in a WOL information brief, available on the Web at: http://www.us.pe.ibm.com/infobrf/iblan.html See the section Troubleshooting and FAQslater in this guide for general trouble— shooting and a listing of common problems and solutions for Wake on LAN operability.

To view the readmefiles, insert the PRO/100+ adapter disk into a drive, switch to that drive, and type: SETUP /README and then press Enter. PROSet: An Overview When you install the PRO/100+ adapter Windows drivers, an advanced I configuration utility called PROSet is also installed. Users running Windows NT or Windows 95798 can easily test bardware and set standard and advanced adapter features with PROSet. PROSet runs when you highlight an adapter and click the Properties button in the Network control panel. The main PROSet window is shown below. S 11

Duplex Mode (Optional) Duplexing is a performance option that lets you choose how the adapter sends and receives data packets over the network. The adapter can operate at full duplex only when connected to a full duplex 10BASE—T or 100BASE—TX switch, or to another full duplex adapter. The possible settings for duplexing are: * Auto (requires a full duplex adapter or switch with auto—negotiation capa— bility). The adapter negotiates with the switch to send and receive packets at the highest rate. This is the default setting. If the switch does not provide auto—negotiation, the adapter runs at half duplex. * Full duplex (requires a full duplex switch or adapter). The adapter can send and receive packets at the same time. This mode can increase adapter performance capability. If the full duplex switch provides auto—negotiation, the adapter runs at full duplex. If the full duplex switch does not provide auto—negotiation, you need to set the adapter duplex mode manually (see the following sections), because it defaults to balf duplex. + Half duplex. The adapter performs one operation at a time; it either sends or receives. NOTE: If an adapter is running at 100 Mbps and half duplex, your potential bandwidth is higher than if you run it at 10 Mbps and full dupiex. Manually Configuring for Full Duplex If your switch supports auto—negotiation with the N—way standard, duplex con— figuration is automatic and no action is required on your part. However, many currently—installed switches do not support anto—negotiation. Check with your network system administrator to verify whether your switch supports this fea— ture. Most installations will require manual configuration to changeto full duplex. Configuration is specific to the driver you‘re loading for your network operating system (NOS). To set up the duplex mode,refer to the section below that corresponds to your operating system. CAUTION: Adapter performance may suffer or your adapter may not operate if your switch doesn‘t support full duplex and you configure the adapter to full duplex. The switch settings must always agree with the adapter. Also, make sure to always satthe speed when you configure duplex. Setting Full Duplex in DOS, ODI*, NDIS 2.01 Clients For each adapter, edit the NET.CFG or PROTOCOL.INI file. If editing the NET.CFG file, add the following keywords to the Link Driver section. For the PROTOCOL.IN! file, add these keywords anywhere: 12

FORCEDUPLEX 2 SPEED 100 (or 10 if 10BASE—T) Setting Full Dupiex in NetWare Servers For each adapter in AUTOEXEC.NCF, edit the LOAD command and add the following options (you must include the equal sign for servers): FORCEDUPLEX=2 SPEED=100 (or 10 if 10BASE—T) For more information, see the readme file for NetWare computers. Setting Full Duplex in Windows 95/98 While running Windows 95/98: 1 Double—click the PROSet icon from the Control Panel. Click Settings. 3 In the Network Speed list box, click 10 or 100, according to the speed of your network. 4 In the Duplex Mode list box, click Full. 5 Click OK. 6 Restart Windows. Setting Full Duplex in Other Operating Systems See the OTHER.TXT readmefile in the \OTHER directory on the PRO/100+ Client adapter disk. Open the file with any text editor Troubleshooting and FAQs If the Adapter Can‘t Connect to the Network Make sure the cable is Installed properly. The network cable must be securely attached at both RJ—45 connections (adapter and bub). The maximum allowable distance from adapter to hub is 100 meters. If the cable is attached and the distance is within acceptable limits but the prob— lem persists, try a differentcable. If you‘re directly connecting two computers without a hub or switch, use a crossover cable. M Check the LED lights on the adapter. The adapter has two diagnostic LEDs, one on each side of the cable connector. These lights help indicate if there‘s a problem with the connector, cable, or switch/hub. 13

The adapter is not sending or receiving network data. The adapter and switch are not receiving power; the cable connection between the switch and adapter is faulty; or you have a driver configuration prob— lem. Flashing The adapter is sending or receiving net— work data, The frequency of the flashes varies with the amount of network traffic. 100 On Operating at 100 Mbps. Off Operating at 10 Mbps. Make sure you‘re using the correct drivers. Make sure you‘re using the drivers that comewith this adapter. The driver file name always contains the letter B (for example, E100BODLDOS). Drivers that support previous versions of this adapter don‘t support this version of the adapter. Make sure the switch port and the adapter have the same duplex setting. If you configured the adapter for full duplex, make sure the switch port is also configured for full duplex. Setting the wrong duplex mode can degrade perfor— mance, cause data loss, or result in lost connections. Testing the Adapter (Diagnostics} Test the adapter by running diagnostics. For DOS or Windows 3.1, run Setup on the PRO/100+ adapter disk. For Windows NT* and Windows 95/98, run PROSet by double—clicking on the PROSet icon in the Windows control panel. To run diagnostics, select the adapter and click the Diagnostics tab, then click Run Tests. For additional information, click Help in the PROSet window. 14

Intel® Priority Packet: An Overview Priority Packet is a traffic—prioritization utility that enables you to set up filters to process high pricrity traffic before normal traffic. Using Priority Packet, you can set up filters to give priority to critical applications or users. Priority Packet is available at Intel‘s networking web site, http://www.intel.com/ network. Prioritizing Network Traffic Intel‘s Priority Packet lets you set up filters to send information from critical nodes or applications with an indicated priority. By prioritizing traffic at the host or entry point of the network, network devices can base forwarding decisions on priority information defined in the packet. Priority Packet prioritizes traffic based on filters—parameters you assign to be applied to outgoing (transmit) packets. Using the Priority Packet Filter Wizard, you can set up pre—defined or custom filters based on a node (MAC) address, Ethernet type, or by various properties of the protocol and port. Priority Packet provides two different methods for prioritizing traffic: IEEE 802.1p tagging and Intel High Priority Queue. IEEE 802.1p Tagging TEEE 802.1p is a new IEEE standard for tagging, or adding additional bytes of information to, packets with different priority levels. Packets are tagged with 4 additional bytes, which increase the packet size and indicate a priority level. When these packets are sent out on the network, the higher priority packets are transferred first. Priority packet tagging (also known as Traffic Class Expedit— ing) allows the adapter to work with other elements of the network (switches, routers) to deliver priority packets first. 802.1p tagging enables you to assign specific priority levels from 0 (low) to 7 (high). Using the 802.1p IEEE_802.1p standard for packet tagging, you can assign val— ues to packets based on their priority. This method requires a network infrastruc— ture that supports packet tagging. The routing devices receiving and transferring these packets on your network must support 802.1p for tagging to be effective. After you set up thefilter in Priority Packet, you must launch Inte] PROSet and select ‘802.1p/802.1Q Tagging" on the Advanced Settings tab. 16

CAUTION: IEEE 802. ip tagging increases the size of the packets it tags. Some hubs and switches won‘t recognize the larger packets and will drop them. Check your hub or switch documentation to see if they support 802.1p. (You can configure the switch to strip the tags from the packets and send it on to the next destination as normal traffic.) if these devices don‘t support 802.1p or you‘re not sure, use High Priority Queue (HPQ) to prioritize network traffic. The requirements for effectively using IEEE 802.1p tagging are: * The other devices receiving and routing 802.1p tagged packets must sup— port 802.1p. * The adapters on these devices must support 802.1p (adapters using the Intel 82558 or later Ethernet controller). All PRO/100+ adapters support 802. 1p. PRO/100B adapters do not. & The adapter(s) cannot be assigned to an adapter team. * If you‘re setting up VLANs and packet tagging on the same adapter, the ‘802.1p/802.1Q Tagging® must be ‘Enabled‘ on the Intel PROSet Advanced Settings tab. Intel High Priority Queue If your network infrastructure devices don‘t support IEEE 802.1p or you‘re not sure, you can still define filters and send packets as bigh priority. While High Priority Queue (HPQ) doesn‘t provide the precise priority levels of 802.1p tag— ging, it does assign traffic as either high or low priority, and sends high priority packets first. Therefore, if there are multiple applications on a system sending packets, the packets from the application with a filter are sent out first. HPQ doesn‘t change network routing, nor does it add any information to the packets. To assign HPQ, you can specify it using Priority Packet when you create or assign a filter. To effectively use HPQ tagging, the adapter(s) cannot be assigned to an adapter team. For more information on Priority Packet, see the related white paper at Intel‘s networking web site, http://www.intel.com/network. PCI Installation Tips PCI computers are designed to automatically configure add—in cards each time the computer starts. Your PCI computer sets the /O address and IRQ level for your network adapter when the computer starts, These values cannot be changed by Entel adapter software. If you experience a problem when the computer starts, you may need to follow additional configuration steps. 17

On some computers, manual configuration is possible through the computer‘s PCI BIOS setup utility. Refer to your computer‘s documentation. You may need to verify or change some BIOS settings. Some common PCI solutions are listed bere: Busmaster—enabled slots. On some computers, not all slots are busmaster enabled by default. Check your BIOS PCI bus setting. It will be set to cither Busmaster or Non—busmastered. Choose Busmaster. Reserve interrupts (IRQs) and/or memory addresses for ISA adapters. This prevents PCI cards from trying to use the same settings ISA cards are using. Check your PCI BIOS setup program. There may be IRQ options such as Enable for ISA, Reserve for ISA, or Disable for PCI This option is sometimes in the Plug and Play area of the BIOS setup. Enable the PCI slot. In some PCI computers, you must use the PCI BIOS setup program to enable the PCI slot. This is especially common in PCI computers with the PhoenixBIO$®. Update your PCI BIOS. An updated PCI system BIOS can correct some PCI configuration problems. Call your computer manufacturer to see if an updated BJOS version is available for your computer. Configure the slot for level—triggered interrupts. The slot the adapter is using must be configured for level—triggered interrupts rather than edge— triggered interrupts. Check your PCI BIOS Setup program. Here are some examples of PCI BIOS setup program parameters: PCI slot #: Slot where the adapteris installed Master: ENABLED Slave: ENABLED Latency timer: 40 Interrupt: Choose an IRQ from the list Edge—level: Level The exact wording of these parameters varies with different computers. Removing an Existing Adapter in Windows 95 If you are replacing an existing adapter with a PRO/100+ adapter, follow these steps before physically removing the adapter card: Double—click My Computer. & i Aow n o— Double—click Control Panel.

Fast Ethernet Wiring 100BASE—TX Specification: The 100BASE—TX specification supports 100 Mbps transmission over two pairs of Category 5 twisted—pair Ethernet (TPE) wiring. One pair is for transmit operations and the other for receive operations. Segment lengths are limited to 100 meters with 100BASE—TX for signal timing reasons. This complies with the EIA 568 wiring standard. LANDesk Service Agent Notes The following notes apply to PRO/100+ Management adapters thatare equipped with the Intel LANDesk Service Agent (LSA) boot ROM option. Canceling an LSA network boot To cancel a network boot in progress, press Esc or Ctrl—C. This resets the adapter and lets the computer start up without the LSA boot ROM. Setting the correct interrupt During start—up, LSA works with the computer‘s BIOS. Current versions of LSA use interrupt 18h, while prior versions used 19h for compatibility with older BIOS chips. If your computer fails to start with LSA, you may need to manually switch the interrupt. During start—up with LSA, this message appears, indicating which interruptit is using: PXE—MO4: Hooking bootstrap interrupt 18h... or PXE—MO4: Hooking bootstrap interrupt 19h... To toggle between interrupts during start—up, press Ctrl—T. If you change the value, it will be stored in the EEPROM on the adapter and will not need to be changed again. 19
