2. Boot the system.
3. Insert the 3Com EtherLink III PC Card device.
Identifying an Unrecognized Card
If you insert a 3C562 or 3C589 card and it isn’t recognized (no special files created),
use the prtconf command to try to identify the problem.
1. Become root.
2. Run the prtconf -D command to see if your 3C562 or 3C589 card is
recognized.
A recognized device will appear in the prtconf output. For example:
# prtconf -D
...
pcic, instance #0 (driver name: pcic)
...
network, instance #0 (driver name: pcelx)
3. If pcelx does not appear in the prtconf output, there is a problem with the
PC Card adapter configuration or with the hardware. Check to see whether the
problem is with the card or the adapter by trying to use the card on another
machine and by seeing if it works on the same machine using DOS.
Configuring Two or More Cards
Because the 3C562 and 3C589 cards are not supported during Solaris installation, you
must update network configuration files before one can be used as a network
interface.
1. Create a /etc/hostname.pcelx# file (where # is a socket number) to specify
the host name to be associated with this interface.
2. Add an IP address for the new host name to the file /etc/inet/hosts.
3. Ensure that the associated network is listed in /etc/inet/netmasks.
4. Ensure that the Name Service Switch /etc/nsswitch.conf configuration file
includes the network and local services you need.
5. Reboot the system.
