TokenExpress(TM) Adapter: Installation, NetWare - v2.1x and 2.2x Server
NETWARE V2.1X OR 2.2 SERVER INSTALLATION
This file contains instructions specific for the installation and
operation of Intel's TokenExpress adapter driver. Refer to the
appropriate Network Operation System documentation for any NOS-specific
questions or other information.
These instructions apply to Release 5.0 of the software.
Installing and configuring the Intel TokenExpress adapter driver for
Novell NetWare v2.1x or v2.2
General Information
The Intel TokenExpress adapter driver diskette #1 (volume label:
LAN_DRV_453) contains the object modules needed during the NetWare
operating system generation (using NETGEN, ELSGEN or INSTALL).
The following files (located in the driver diskette root directory) are
used:
TOKEXPR.LAN
Descriptor file used by NETGEN, ELSGEN, and INSTALL
ATOKEXPR.OBJ
Object modules used when generating operating systems
BTOKEXPR.OBJ
with NETGEN, ELSGEN or INSTALL.
CTOKEXPR.OBJ
DTOKEXPR.OBJ
\NETWARE\NW22\NOVLINST.BAT
Batch file that copies the TokenExpress NetWare drivers to a hard disk
or a network drive.
Installing the TokenExpress drivers under NetWare V2.1x
If NetWare is already installed on your hard disk or a network drive,
run the NOVLINST.BAT file (located in the \NETWARE\NW22 directory on the
Intel driver diskette #1) before you generate the server boot file or
the workstation IPX file.
To run the batch file, do the following:
1. Insert the Intel driver diskette in drive A:.
2. Enter the following command at the DOS prompt:
A:\NETWARE\NW22\NOVLINST <target_path>
Where <target_path> is the full path name to the directory where NETWARE
is installed. For example, "A:\NETWARE\NW22\NOVLINST F:\NETWARE" will
create a LAN_DRV_.453 directory under F:\NETWARE, copy the Intel drivers
into the new directory, and copy the adapter configuration file into the
AUXGEN directory.
If installing NetWare 2.1x for the first time on a disk or network
drive, the NOVLINST.BAT file is not used. During installation, NetWare
will prompt you for additional driver diskettes. Enter Y (yes), insert
the Intel driver diskette, and follow the instructions on the screen.
If your network uses source routing, choose a configuration that enables
source routing.
Hardware configurations for NetWare 2.x servers
0: I/O = A20,A30 self configuring IRQ and DMA. No Src Routing
1: I/O = A24,A40 self configuring IRQ and DMA. No Src Routing
2: I/O = A50,A60 self configuring IRQ and DMA. No Src Routing
3: I/O = A54,A70 self configuring IRQ and DMA. No Src Routing
4: I/O = A20,A30 self configuring IRQ and DMA. Src Routing
5: I/O = A24,A40 self configuring IRQ and DMA. Src Routing
6: I/O = A50,A60 self configuring IRQ and DMA. Src Routing
7: I/O = A54,A70 self configuring IRQ and DMA. Src Routing
For the EISA/32 adapter, the above I/O addresses fall within the ranges
selected in the EISA configuration program:
A20, A30 corresponds to the selection 0A18-0A23 & 0A30-0A3F
A24, A40 corresponds to the selection 0A24-0A2F & 0A40-0A4F
A50, A60 corresponds to the selection 0A50-0A53 & 0A58-0A6F
A54, A70 corresponds to the selection 0A54-0A57 & 0A70-0A87
The remaining I/O addresses (1Axx range of addresses) are not currently
supported.
Installing the TokenExpress drivers with NetWare 2.2
During the NetWare installation process, NetWare presents a list of
drivers for you to install.
1. Press INSERT to choose a new driver.
2. When prompted for the LAN_DRV_XXX diskette, insert the Intel
diskette containing the NetWare drivers. Press Enter.
3. Choose the Intel driver name from the list. For example, "Intel
TokenExpress ISA 16/4 adapter"
Continue as directed by NetWare.
If your network uses source routing, choose a configuration that enables
source routing.

A54, A70 corresponds to the selection 0A54-0A57 & 0A70-0A87
The remaining I/O addresses (1Axx range of addresses) are not currently
supported.
Note: EARLY TOKEN RELEASE is always enabled in the Intel
TokenExpress NetWare drivers.
Configuring NetWare 2.1x server packet size
Some 2.1x server configurations have too few File Service Proceesses
(FSPs). A 2.1x server usually has 3 FSPs when using 2K byte packets
(The number of FSPs can be determined by typing CONFIG at the server
prompt). If less than 3 FSP's are available, it is recommended that the
packet size be reduced to 1K bytes.
The OCNW21SZ.COM utility, included on the TokenExpress driver diskette,
is used to modify the NetWare 2.1x server driver packet size to either
1K or 2K bytes.
Since NetWare 2.2 provides a sufficient number of FSPs, this utility
should not be used to modify the driver packet size. Reducing the
packet size will decrease server throughput.
