802.2 Default Frame Type
Novell's new Ethernet ODI drivers default to the 802.2 frame
type. Older Ethernet drivers default to the 802.3 frame type. The
change to 802.2 allows compatibility with, and greater
connectivity to future products. Frame types on the server and
workstation must match.
Driver frame types can be changed from default to another frame
type by using the FRAME command in the workstation NET.CFG file
with a valid frame_type parameter.
Valid frame types,
ETHERNET_802.2
ETHERNET_802.3
ETHERNET_II
ETHERNET_SNAP
When using the workstation driver (802.2 frame type) found on the
included diskette make sure that your server uses the same frame
type. The server LAN driver frame type can be configured by using
the FRAME =frame-type parameter when loading and
binding the server driver.
For more information on NET.CFG parameters see NetWare
Workstation for DOS or ODI for DOS User's Guide.
