Can't Find An Etherexpress Pro/100 Adapter
Description:
The following are possible causes :
- EISA adapter may not be configured through the ECU.
- The PCI/EISA adapter may not be properly installed in the slot.
- The slot the EtherExpress PRO/100 adapter is in may not be
busmastering.
Solution:
- Make sure your EISA adapter is configured in the ECU.
- Reseat the EtherExpress PRO/100 adapter and make sure it is firmly
in the slot.
- Check with your system manual or manufacturer to ensure the slot
the EtherExpress PRO/100 adapter is in is busmastering. The slot
must be busmastering in order for the EtherExpress adapter to be
recognized and work properly.
Network Adapter Failed Self Test
Description:
The adapter failed to respond to a self test initialization command.
Solution:
For PCI adapters, exclude the 8k memory address being used for the flash
chip.
For EISA adapters, disable the flash memory address.
Illegal Node Address : Multicast Address Format
Description:
The node address of the adapter has a multicast address format, where
the least significant bit of the most significant address byte is a 1.
Solution:
Specify a unique node address override using the NODE parameter in the
NET.CFG or on the command line.
Illegal Node Address : All Zeroes
Description:
The node address of the adapter contains all zeroes. This is not a valid
ethernet address.
Solution:
Specify a unique node address override using the NODE parameter in the
NET.CFG or on the command line.
Network Adapter Failed To Respond To Initialization Commands
Description:
The network driver timed out waiting for the adapter to respond to
initialization commands.
Solution:
Run adapter diagnostics to verify that the adapter works properly.
The Network Adapter Failed To Complete A Configuration Command
Description:
The network driver timed out waiting for the adapter to respond to a
configuration command.
Solution:
Verify that a terminated cable is connected to the adapter before the
driver is loaded. If the problem persists, run diagnostics.
Unable To Configure The Network Adapter
Description:
The network adapter did not respond to a configuration command during
initialization
Solution:
Verify that the adapter is properly installed in the slot. Verify that a
terminated cable is connected to the adapter. If the problem persists,
run diagnostics.
Unable To Set Up The Node Address Of The Adapter
Description:
The network adapter did not respond to a node address set up command
during initialization.
Solution:
Verify that the adapter is properly installed in the slot. Verify that a
terminated cable is connected to the adapter. If the problem persists,
