Configuring adapters in PCI, EISA, and MCA machines

The Network Configuration Manager can automatically detect PCI, EISA, and MCA network adapters that are installed in machines with those bus architectures. This means that configuration parameters are read directly from the adapter and the driver is configured automatically. You need only confirm your selection and continue with protocol stack configuration.

NOTE: If you are installing an ISA adapter in a PCI, EISA, or MCA machine, or in a multi-bus machine with PCI, EISA, or MCA network adapters, the ISA adapter will not appear in the list of adapters found in the system. You must select Configure an adapter not in the list, then continue configuring the adapter as you would in an ISA machine. See ``Configuring ISA and PCMCIA adapters''.

You must run the Network Configuration Manager after installing PCI, EISA, or MCA adapters to configure them in your system.
