Release Notes
-------------
EtherDisk 6.1 has been revised and is split into two diskettes.
EtherDisk #1 contains all the files necessary to install the EtherLink 10
ISA in Windows 95/98 or Windows NT. This includes a Windows based GUI
installer for Windows 95/98 and a post installation configuration and
diagnostic tool, accessible from a system tray icon and from the Windows
Start Menu, for both Windows 9x and Windows NT environments. Both NDIS3 and
NDIS4 miniport drivers are included and appropriately installed in Windows 95/98
and Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0.
EtherDisk #2 contains the software that was on EtherDisk 6.0. This includes
installation for NetWare versions 3.X and 4.X, various DOS based network
operating systems, IBM OS/2, and the packet driver.
Full duplex support for the 3C509B has been added to the NetWare server and
Windows NT/95/98 drivers. Control of the full duplex feature is provided in
the configuration and diagnostic program. Full duplex operation improves
overall network throughput on twisted pair (TP) networks.
A boot ROM for the EtherLink 10 ISA product family is available from your
network supplier. The 3C5-TriROM supports NetWare boot, RPL, and BootP
network boot protocols.
The EtherLink 10 ISA, formerly known as the EtherLink III, has gone thru a
product name change. The products are fully compatible and the terms EtherLink
III and EtherLink 10 ISA can be used interchangeably.
Important
---------
Not all NICS and hardware product features are supported with this EtherDisk.
The 3C509 and 3C509B in both classic and Plug n Play modes are fully supported.
The 3C509 and 3C509B in EISA mode are not supported.
The 3C579 EISA NICs are not supported.
The 3C529 MicroChannel NICs are partially supported. In Windows 95 and
Windows NT, the NIC driver can be installed and removed, but the windows
diagnostic program and tray icon are not loaded. To make configuration
changes or test a 3C529, use the DOS diagnotic on diskette #2.
The Windows 95/98 and Windows NT full port drivers have been combined into a
single miniport driver. It is important to use this driver if you use
3Com's DRMON network management software. This driver will give better
performance when the DRMON client agent is used. When converting from past
drivers to this driver, or installing this driver for the first time,
several things must be considered.
