Networking With SunPCi III
There are two ways to connect each SunPCi III card to your network:
■ Physical Ethernet – Use the external Ethernet connector on the back of the
SunPCi III card and connect the card to a second physical Ethernet connection.
■ Virtual Ethernet – Use the internal networking driver (NDIS driver) in the
SunPCi III software and connect through your system’s Ethernet connection.
Note – When more than one SunPCi III card is installed in a system, virtual
networking is disabled by the SunPCi III software.
