Step 5: Install the latest software.

Load the software media into the appropriate drive.
- If you are adding the Gigabit Ethernet software bundle (IEther-00) for 11i v 1.0, you can get the Gigabit Ethernet software bundle on the December 2004 (or later) OE and/or Application Software distribution media.
- If you are adding the Gigabit Ethernet software bundle (IEther-00) for 11i v 2.0, you must use the September 2004 (or later) OE distribution media.
Run the swinstall program to install the software using the command: swinstall.
Change the host name after “Source Host Name,” if necessary.
Click the Source Depot Path to identify the registered depot for the appropriate source depot path and activate the OK button to return to the Software Selection Window.
Highlight the 1000Base-T software IEther-00 (for cards such as AB545A).
Choose Mark for Install from the “Actions” menu to choose the product to be installed.
Choose Install from the “Actions” menu to begin product installation and open the Install Analysis Window.
Activate the OK button in the Install Analysis Window when the Status field displays a “Ready” message.
Activate the YES button at the Confirmation Window to confirm that you want to install the software. swinstall loads the fileset, runs the control scripts for the filesets, and builds the kernel.
