- GENERAL
- INFORMATION: With NetWare 386 v3.1 you can load the LAN driver multiple
- times. If you were using the NE2000, you could type "Load
- NE2000 Frame=Ethernet_II" and then "Load NE2000
- Frame=Ethernet_802.3". NetWare sees the NE2000 as two
- virtual boards and will now accept multiple frame types at
- the file server.
-
- When you BIND IPX it sees two boards and asks you which one
- to bind and gives each virtual board a different network
- address. At this point you have split the Ethernet segment
- into two virtual segments. Now Ethernet_II, as well as
- 802.3 workstations, will be able to communicate with the
- file server.
