| Issue |
We'd like to install two 3Com Fast EtherLink XL 3C905B network cards in our computer using the Net.ether905 driver. What do we need to do?
|
| Solution |
First, let the system know that there are two network cards installed and which driver to use. In this case it will be the Net.ether905 driver.
eg.
Net &
Net.ether905 -l1 &
Net.ether905 -l2 &
netmap -f
Then set up the /etc/config/netmap file to include the entry for each card's interface.
eg.
1 1 xxxxxx xxxxxx
1 2 xxxxxx xxxxxx
where the first entry is the node number of the machine, the second is the logical network number and the third(xxxxxx xxxxxx) is the physical address of each of the cards.
For more information see the chapter on Networking in the "QNX OS Installation & Configuration" manual, and the entries for Net, Net.ether905, nettrap and netmap in the "QNX OS Utilities -- N to Z" manual. |
