Since you didn't say which version of Digital UNIX you are running, I
will give you the generic answer:
Look in the SPD and in the Digital Systems and Options Catalog.
You can find the Systems and Options Catalog in the www.digital.com web
site under products. You can find the SPD in your Digital UNIX kit or
on the www.unix.digital.com web site.
In general, what's going to work are Digital DE500 and equivalent
cards. There is a driver for Etherlink III in Digital UNIX V4.0B
and later, but it's not automatically configured and the console
firmware for your system probably wouldn't be able to recognize or
support an Etherlink III PCI card.
