Install and configure the dual port Ethernet driver

NOTE: Refer to

“Software requirements” on page 20

to determine the Profile

System Software required to support the IP UIM, then upgrade the Profile System
Software before installing the driver as described below.

Use this procedure to install the dual port Ethernet board driver and configure it for
Adapter Fault Tolerance (AFT) teaming. This means both ports share one IP address
and are capable of failover from one to the other in the event of a fault.

These procedures assume that the Profile XP Media Platform currently has a valid IP
address assigned to the standard single port Ethernet adapter. The procedures ensure
that the Profile XP Media Platform retains the current IP address and that the IP
address is re-assigned correctly for shared use by the dual Ethernet ports.

To install and configure the driver:

1. Open the

Network

icon in the Control Panel.

2. On the

Adapters

tab, click

Add

. The Select Network Adapter dialog box appears.

3. Don't select an Intel adapter from the list. Instead, click

Have Disk

. The Insert Disk

dialog box appears.

4. Type the following path into the dialog box:

C:\profile\drivers\IntelDualPort

The driver was copied into this directory during Profile System Software
installation.

5. Click

OK

. The Select OEM Option dialog box opens.

6. Select the

Intel PRO

adapter and click

OK

. The Select OEM Option dialog box

closes and Windows adds the driver. In the Network dialog box on the Adapters
tab, the driver appears in the Network adapters list as two dual Port Server adapters.
