Ethernet software configuration
The onboard Ethernet interface supports all major network
operating systems. I/O addresses and interrupts are easily
configured via the Award BIOS Setup. To configure the
medium type, to view the current configuration, or to run
diagnostics, please refer to the following instruction:
1. Power the mainboard on. Ensure that the 8255X.EXE file is
located in the working drive.
2. At the prompt, type 8255X.EXE and press <ENTER>. The
Ethernet configuration program will then be displayed.
3. This simple screen shows all the available options for the
Ethernet interface. Just highlight the option you wish to
change by using the Up and DOWN keys. To change a
selected item, press <ENTER>, and a screen will appear with
the available options. Highlight your option and press
<ENTER>. Each highlighted option has a helpful message
guide displayed at the bottom of the screen for additional
information.
4. After you have made your selections and the configuration
is what you want, press <ESC>. A prompt will appear
asking if you want to save the configuration. Press "Y" if
you want to save.
The Ethernet Setup Menu also offers three very useful diagnos-
tic functions. These are:
1. Run EEPROM test
2. Run Diagnostics on Board
3. Run Diagnostics on Network
Each option has its own display screen which shows the format
and result of any diagnostic tests undertaken.
