Media Type

The transceiver setting should agree with the network cabling
type. The program provides two choices:

• Auto detection

• 10BASE5 (AUI)

With the first choice, the card automatically detects the connec-
tor in use — either RJ-45 or BNC. The second choice enables
the AUI connector.

Full-Duplex Mode

Enable full-duplex mode only if the card is connected directly to
a switch that also supports this mode. Do not enable this mode
if the card is connected to a hub.

Boot ROM Size

Each card provides an empty socket for an optional 16 KB boot
ROM. Once installed and enabled, the boot ROM permits the
host PC to download the disk operating system (DOS) or
network drivers over the network. The boot ROM function is
disabled by default. After you install a boot ROM, be sure to
enable this function.
