4.5 Using the Novell PCONSOLE Utility
The Network Interface Board normally monitors the network to determine which
frame type is used for Novell. When it recognizes a type, it assumes the same
frame type. Once it selects a frame type, the Network Interface Board only
operates over that Novell frame type. Monitoring normally starts looking for
IEEE 802.3, then Ethernet II, then 802.3 SNAP, and so on.
If you are operating in NDS mode only, you can disable Bindery Mode on the
10.
Print Server by putting a checkmark in the Disable Bindery checkbox.
If you disable Bindery Mode, the Network Interface Board does not support Print
Servers on a Bindery file server.

Once you have selected all desired settings and entered the desired NetWare
information, click Accept Settings to save this information in the Network
Interface Board NVRAM.
If you have not entered the Network Interface Board Management password
previously during this session, you must enter it in the appropriate space before
clicking Accept Settings.
The values you entered do not take effect until the Network Interface Board is reset or
power cycled. You can reset from MAP or the Web browser by returning to the home page
or Network Administration page, and clicking Reset under System, and then clicking
Reset Unit. Alternatively, you can power cycle the printer. The new NetWare values are
now in effect.
