Add Another Network

If you are adding another LAN card or are adding and configuring a token ring network in addition to your first network, follow the instructions provided below for adding a network. Refer to Chapter 3 and the File Server Worksheet for information on the Add a Network parameters.

Add a Token Ring Network

You can add a token ring network as follows:

Log into the system as root.
At the HP-UX prompt, type: sam
Double click Networking and Communications at the SAM main window.
Double click NetWare at the Networking and Communications window.
Double click Networking Configuration at the NetWare window to go to Transport Configuration.
Add a Network. Choose Add from the "Actions" menu to open the Add an IPX Network window.
1. Enter the information about the network. To do so, press the Tab key to move through the data entry fields.
  Parameters

2. Select the LAN card from the list of Host Interface names.
  1. The NetWare autodiscovery feature will list the IPX networks to which you can connect.
  2. Select the IPX network you want from the list.
3. Enter the External Network Address of your network.
4. Enter the Frame Type of your network.
5. Enable/disable SAP reply to Get Nearest Server.
6. Activate the OK button to perform the task(s) and return to the Networking Configuration Window.
If you do not already have token ring NetWare clients, you must configure them to support token ring if the clients are on a token ring segment. Refer to the NetWare Workstation for DOS manual from Novell, Inc., for more information.

Add a Second Network Configuration

When you add another LAN card to your system, you must configure another network for NetWare 9000 using the SAM "Add a Network" function.

The table below shows an example with the first LAN using the defaults and the second LAN using a network number of 00000003:

Parameters	First LAN Values (using default configuration)	Second LAN Values
Interface Name	n/a	(blank) Press <Return>
Frame Type	`ETHERNET_802.2`	`ETHERNET_802.2`
External Network Number	`00000002`	`00000003`
SAP reply to Get Nearest Server?	No	No

Activate Configuration Changes

To activate any configuration changes you have made, NetWare must be stopped (if running), and restarted as described in Chapter 1: "Step 7: Start NetWare 4.1."
