EtherExpress™ 16 Adapter
Configuring Adapters with the Same Settings

To use the identical configuration on multiple adapters, save the configuration of one adapter and load the saved configuration file onto another adapter.

When you do this, you're only saving or loading the hardware configuration. To complete the installation, you must install the network drivers on each computer.

To Save the Configuration

  1. Insert the Driver disk into a drive and switch to that drive.
  2. Type: SOFTSET /SAVE=filename

    For example: SOFTSET /SAVE=a:\e16conf.cfg

Or, you can type SoftSet and select SAVE CONFIGURATION TO FILE. SoftSet asks you to specify where to save the file.

To Load a Saved Configuration onto an Adapter

  1. Put the adapter in the computer according the instructions on page 3 of the Installation Guide.
  2. Copy the configuration file you want to use onto the computer or onto a floppy disk.
  3. Insert the Driver disk into a drive, switch to that drive, and type: SOFTSET /LOAD=filename

    For example:

    SOFTSET /LOAD=a:\e16conf.cfg

    Or, you can type SOFTSET and select LOAD CONFIGURATION FROM FILE. SoftSet asks you to specify the location of the configuration file you want to use.
