How to Use This Guide

The Intel® PRO/1000 T IP Storage Adapter allows companies to build

cost-effective Storage Area Networks (SANs) using standard LAN/

Ethernet infrastructure. It uses the new, open iSCSI standard to transmit

SCSI storage data over native Ethernet networks, dramatically lowering the

total cost of ownership for storage networks while still offering increased

reliability, availability, scalability, and manageability of stored data. This

adapter is designed to optimize PCI server bus architecture with 66 MHz/

64-bit performance for high-end storage environments, and connects

devices located anywhere on an Ethernet network.

This Quick Installation Guide provides information on how to install the

PRO/1000 T IP Storage Adapter, how to download Windows and Linux

drivers, and basic adapter configuration information. For complete details

on adapter configuration and maintenance, refer to the PRO/1000 T IP

Storage Adapter User Configuration Guide on the CD-ROM.

System Requirements

Before installing the Intel PRO/1000 T IP Storage Adapter, check your

system for the following minimum configuration requirements:

• One open 32-bit or 64-bit bus master PCI slot

•64MBofsystemmemory

•ThelatestBIOSforyourcomputer

• Microsoft Windows*^ 2000 (SP2 or later), Windows NT*^ 4.0 (SP 6 or

later), Linux Red Hat* version 7.1 (2.4 kernel)

• Category 5, twisted-pair cabling for 100/1000 Mbps operation, and an

802.3ab-compliant gigabit switch such as the Intel® NetStructure™

480T switch. For best results at 1000 Mbps, use CAT 5e cabling.

^You can download the necessary software patches from Microsoft (see below).

Microsoft Service Packs

Visit the following Microsoft web site for the latest Service Pack

information. If this site has changed, go to the main Microsoft site and

search for the term, “Service Pack.”

Inserting the Adapter in the Computer

1. Turn off and unplug your computer if it is not a Hot Plug system. For

Hot Plug servers, see your server’s documentation.

2. Remove the cover from the computer.

WARNING: Turn off and unplug the computer before remov-

ing the computer cover. Failure to do so could endanger you

and may damage the adapter or computer.

3. Remove the cover bracket from the 32-bit or 64-bit PCI bus master

slot. A 64-bit slot should be used whenever possible. In a 32-bit PCI

slot, the end of the edge connector will be exposed and not connected.

Make sure the exposed end does not contact any conducting part of the

motherboard (see Figure 1).

NOTE: The NIC cards in the PCI bus slots in Figure 1 are for illustration

purposes only to show ease of installation. The actual PRO/1000

T IP Storage Adapter card is longer and contains more compo-

nents than the NICs depicted in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Adapter card being inserted in PCI bus master slots

4. Press the adapter into the slot until the adapter is firmly seated. Secure

the adapter bracket.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each adapter you want to install.

6. Replace the computer cover and plug in the power cord.

7. Turn the power on. The computer PCI BIOS automatically assigns

resources to the adapter(s). If you receive a PCI configuration error, see

“Troubleshooting” in the User Configuration Guide on the CD.

Attaching the Network Cable

RJ-45 Adapter

Insert the Category 5 twisted pair RJ-45 network cable into the adapter

connector, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2. RJ-45 network cable being inserted into an adapter connector

For 1000Base-T or 100Base-TX, you must use Category 5 network cable

(four twisted-pair wiring). If you plan to run the adapter at 1000 Mbps, it

must be connected to a compatible 1000 Mbps switch.

NOTE: Most compatible switches do not support all three speeds

(10/100/1000) on a single port. Refer to the switch documenta-

tion for details.

For 10Base-T, use Category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair wiring. Residential

environments require the use of a Category 5 cable.

Installing the Drivers

Driver installation procedures are included for Windows 2000, Windows

NT 4.0, and Linux Red Hat Version 7.1. You can also install drivers from

the accompanying CD.

Windows* 2000

After you install the PRO/1000 T IP Storage Adapter in the computer,

connect the cable, plug in the power cord, and start the computer. Windows

will detect the new PCI device and display the Found New Hardware

dialog box, and start the Found New Hardware Wizard.

Using the Wizard, follow this procedure to install the correct driver.

1. Insert the PRO/1000 T IP Storage Adapter CD in the CD-ROM drive.

If the CD autorun program starts, close this window at this time.

2. On the Wizard Welcome screen, click on “Next” to start.

3. On the next screen, choose the “Search for a Suitable Driver” option,

and click on “Next.”

4. Click on the CD-ROM box only on the Locate Driver screen, and

clickon“Next.”

5. After a few moments, the Search Results will indicate a driver was

found on the CD. Click on “Next” to continue.

6. The “Digital Signature Not Found” screen will display. This screen

will be deleted when Microsoft certification has been obtained. Click

on “Yes”.

7. The necessary files will then be copied to the computer. The Wizard

displays a “Completing the Found New Hardware Wizard” message.

Clickon“Finish.”

8. Navigate to Start/Settings/Control Panel.

9. Double-click on the “Intel® PROSet for IP Storage” icon to begin the

configuration process. Refer to the online User Configuration Guide

on the CD to complete the configuration process.

Windows NT* 4.0

The SAN driver supports Windows NT 4.0 servers and workstations. This

driver does not support Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 3.51 or earlier versions

of NT.

NOTE: Prior to installation, review the Service Pack requirements in the

System Requirements section. If your NT install does not

include it, apply Service Pack 6, which can be downloaded from

Microsoft.com
