Preconfiguration Information
Only the latest revision of the ES3210 is supported--it uses surface-mount technology. The older boards have a white sticker on the back bearing the number 625-0136-00; the newer cards have the number 625-0367-00 or higher.
Supported Settings
|
o IRQ Level: |
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15 |
The default setting for the IRQ on this Ethernet adapter is 3, which is typically used by COM2. IRQ 6 is typically used by the diskette controller.
|
o Memory Base Address: |
0xC0000, 0xC4000, 0xC8000, 0xCC000, 0xD0000, 0xD4000, 0xD8000, 0xDC000 |
The riles driver will not work with the default setting (Memory Mapped Disable). When changing the setting, be aware that C0000-C3FFF is used by the VGA BIOS, if present.
|
o DMA Channel: |
Disabled, 5, 6, 7 |
If you choose DMA channel 5, 6, or 7, network performance will degrade.
-
Change the default Shared Memory Disabled setting and provide an explicit address for the memory area on the ES3210 or ES3210 TP since the riles driver does not support I/O-mapped I/O.
