3.4 ODI Driver Software

The Open Data-Link Interface (ODI) driver software allows LAN drivers to work together
irrespective of differences between the hardware and/or the protocol stacks of
communicating systems. An intervening layer, called the link support layer (LSL), is
responsible for routing different packet types between LAN drivers and protocol stacks.

3.4.1 Installing the Driver Software

Installing the ODI driver software involves the following steps:
1. Verify that the MS-DOS operating system files are installed on your system hard disk
or are available on a removable storage device.
2. Install the ODI driver software in the MS-DOS environment.
3. If necessary, reconfigure the driver software after installation.
Preinstallation Requirements
Verify that the D-Link NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver software has been installed
on your system. If it has not, install it (see Installing the Driver Software). Otherwise, you
cannot use a D-Link NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet adapter in the MS-DOS environment.
NOTE: To be able to successfully install the adapter driver in the MS-DOS environment, the
adapter must be installed before you install the adapter driver.
