    USING MULTIPLE TOKENEXPRESS MCA ADAPTERS IN A NETWARE 3.11 SERVER

    
       These instructions apply to Release 5.0 of the software.
    
    
    
       Symptom
    
       The results of lab testing showing the multiple adapter capability of an
    
       IBM PS/2 file server using NetWare 386 as the network operating system.
    
    
    
       Test environment
    
       IBM PS/2 Mod 65sx, 4mb memory, IBM PS/2 SCSI adapter, 4 Intel
    
       TokenExpress 16/4 adapters, NetWare 386 v3.11, 4 IBM 8228 MAU's, 1 PS/2
    
       Mod 50 workstation.
    
    
    
       Testing demonstrates that up to 4 Intel TokenExpress 16/4 adapters can
    
       be installed in a NetWare 386 server.  It must be noted that no
    
       performance evaluation is provided here.  Memory and configurations may
    
       need to be installed or modified to provide the best possible
    
       performance.
    
    
    
       The following outlines the hardware configuration for the computer and
    
       the software configuration for the NOS.
