Appendix C, Reestablishing Network

Connections on Retired Compaq ProLiant

Servers

The following section describes one Compaq utility that provides assistance in verifying

connections and reestablishing network links.

Compaq TLAN Teaming and Configuration Utility

This utility, a network-monitoring tool that provides a method of resetting network controllers

and NetFlex-3 drivers when modifications are made to controller slot installation(s), displays PCI

bus numbers, bus type, and slot numbers associated with each device.

Access the applet from the Windows NT Control Panel; the icon is labeled Compaq NetFlex. This

utility is installed from the Compaq Support Paq for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, if the system

contains Compaq ThunderLAN-based network controllers.

The following table lists supported Compaq Netelligent and NetFlex-3 NICs for the Compaq

TLAN Teaming and Configuration Utility:
