3-12 CHAPTER 3: WINDOWS NT DRIVER INSTALLATION
Each ELAN on a physical NIC is assigned a unique MAC
address that is an increment of the base MAC address of
the physical NIC.
When you have completed resilient server link and ELAN
assignments for each discovered NIC, the 3Com ATMLink
Installation window appears, as shown in Figure 3-8 in the
next section.
NIC and ELAN Configuration
The ELANs allocated to an active NIC appear in the ELAN portion
of the ATMLink Installation window (Figure 3-8). The MAC
addresses of the ELANs do not appear until the system is
rebooted. The VCI/VPI Range and Signaling are global
parameters set the same for all NICs in the system. LAN Type,
ILMI VPI/VCI, and Maximum Frame Size are local NIC parameters
and can be different for each NIC. Traffic Shaping and LE
Configuration Mode, shown in Figure 3-9, are ELAN-specific
parameters that can be different for each ELAN.
