Hello all,
we are about to install a cisco catalyst 1900
switch, this has room for a couple of 100baseT ports. Our
AS 2100 (4/200) running du3.2b currently has the 10baseT
tulip card. We have also obtained a de500 10/100 pci card
to upgrad the alpha. The documentation for the de500 refers
only to msdos.
Does 3.2b "support" fast ethernet?
What firmware do I need to be at?(does it matter)
What about the old card? We do not want both cards running.
I have never performed this upgrade before, I had hoped to
1. Take the system down, and install the card
2. reboot and check from the poo prompt that the card is there
3. boot
4. reconfigure the old network interface from UNIX(ifconfig etc,
although the setup command seems to do this well
5. configure the new network interface from UNIX(ifconfig etc,
although the setup command seems to do this well
Any thoughts ?
