2. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Before attempting to install the GigMac Gigabit adapter into your system, please
make sure of the following:
Shut off the power to the computer and any peripherals. It is important to remove
the power cable to the computer to reduce the possibility of residual power
remaining in the power supply.
Ground yourself. Many electronic components inside computer and on the
GigMac card can be severely damaged by receiving a shock of static electricity.
Before touching any electronic components or boards, discharge any static
electricity on your body by touching the bare metal case around the power supply
inside your computer. Avoid excessive movement during the installation, such as
walking across carpets, as this can generate static. If you must leave the
installation area before the installation is complete, be sure to ground yourself
again before continuing the installation.
DSS NETWORKS, INC. Version: 1.12 Page: 7

GigMAC PMC and PCI Controller and Driver Users Manual
Assess system power requirements. If you already have other PCI cards in
your Mac, make sure that your system is able to provide the necessary power to
support the addition of the GigMac adapter card. Check your computer's user
manual for power limitations.
2.1 INSTALLATION IN PC COMPUTER
There are many different styles and types of PC platforms that utilize PCI slots.
This section contains a generic installation procedure. Please refer to your User's
manual for more detailed instructions on installing the adapter in a PC.
The GigMAC PMC card requires a PMC-to-PCI Carrier adapter module in order
to be used in a standard PCI system. Please refer to section 2.2 below for
instructions on installing the GigMAC PMC adapter onto a mainboard carrier
adapter.
Step 1 - Shut down the power to the computer system and remove the power
cord and any peripheral cables.
Step 2 - Open the computer case. This will expose the interior of the case and
allow the adapter card to be installed. Consult your User's Manual for assistance
in opening your computer. The PCI card edge connector contains “key” notches
that correspond to dividers in the motherboard slot. It is very important to align
the key notches with the matching dividers in the slot. Failure to align the notches
correctly could cause the card or slot to be damaged.
Step 3 - Align the GigMac PCI edge connector and the system motherboard
socket as indicated in the diagram above. Once aligned, push down firmly on the
PCI card until it is completely seated in the slot. Once the GigMac adapter has
been successfully installed, close the PC case, re-attach the power cable and
any other cables that were removed for the hardware installation procedure.
Consult Section 2.3 for information on connecting the adapter to the network.
2.2 INSTALLATION IN AN EMBEDDED OR COMPACTPCI
SYSTEM
There are many different styles and types of Embedded System platforms that
utilize PMC Mezzanine slots. This section contains a generic installation
procedure. Please refer to your User's manual for more detailed instructions on
installing the adapter in an Embedded or CompactPCI system.
Step 1 - Shut down the power to the computer system and remove the power
cord and any peripheral cables.
DSS NETWORKS, INC. Version: 1.12 Page: 8

GigMAC PMC and PCI Controller and Driver Users Manual
Step 2 – Remove the CompactPCI or Embedded Mainboard controller from the
system, if necessary to access the PMC slot. This will allow the PMC adapter
card to be more easily installed. Consult your User's Manual for assistance in
opening and removing the mainboard. The PMC card has 3 connectors labeled
JN1, JN2 and JN3. JN1 and JN2 are required for all modes of operation while
JN3 is required only for 64-bit mode. Your CompactPCI mainboard or other PMC
carrier will also contain PMC card connectors labeled JN1 and JN2, and
optionally JN3 and JN4. JN4 is for optional user-defined I/O and is not used by
the GigMAC PMC adapter. Additionally, the mainboard may also contain either a
5 volt or 3.3 volt key to prevent voltage mismatches. Since the GigMAC PMC
card may operate from a 5 or 3.3 volt supply, it can be used in either a 5 or 3.3
volt keyed system. It is very important to align the connectors before pressing the
PMC card onto the mainboard to prevent damage to the card or slot.
Step 3 - Align the GigMac PMC connectors and the system motherboard
Connectors and push down firmly on the PMC card until it is completely seated in
the connectors on the mainboard. Once the GigMac adapter has been
successfully installed, re-install the mainboard. Re-attach the power cable and
any other cables that were removed for the hardware installation procedure.
2.3 CONNECTING THE CONTROLLER TO THE NETWORK
Connecting Copper RJ-45 Models 5160, 5161 and 6160
This section explains how to connect the GigMac controller to the external
network using the standard Category 5 cables. The maximum cable length is
typically 100 meters or 328 feet.
Insert the Category 5 or 5e cable into the RJ-45 connector until the self-locking
tab clicks into position. Connect the opposite end in to a 10/100 or 10/100/1000
Base T switch. Two types of cables are used when connecting the GigMac
controller to the network. A workstation or "straight through" cable is typically
used to connect Ethernet adapters to switches. A crossover cable may also be
used to connect adapters to adapters. This configuration is useful for diagnostic
purposes or when a hub or switch is not available. However, it is not
recommended for extended use, as it violates the IEEE specification for 10 Mbit,
100 Mbit and 1000 Mbit Ethernet networks.
Note: Our GigMAC Models 5160, 5161 and 6160 support “auto-MDIX” mode
where a crossover cable is not required when directly attaching two controllers.
RJ-45 pinouts for CAT5 cables are shown below.
DSS NETWORKS, INC. Version: 1.12 Page: 9

GigMAC PMC and PCI Controller and Driver Users Manual
Note:Cables used for Gigabit networks must use all 8 wires. In 10 and 100
modes, wires are dedicated for transmit or receive while in Gigabit mode, data is
transmitted and received over all 4-pairs.

Connecting Fiber optic Model 7160
This section explains how to connect the GigMac fiber controller to the external
network using standard fiber optic cables. Typically 50 or 62.5 micron multimode
fiber optic cables with LC or SC type connectors are used depending on the
connector option (see section on distance for Model 7160 toward end of this
document in Specifications).
Insert the fiber optic cable into the SC or LC type connector until the self-locking
tab clicks into position. Connect the opposite end in to a 1000 Base SX switch.
Two types of cables are used when connecting the GigMac fiber controller to the
network. A workstation or "straight through" cable is typically used to connect
Ethernet adapters to switches. A crossover cable may also be used to connect
adapters to adapters. This configuration is useful for diagnostic purposes or
when a switch is not available.
3. SOFTWAREW DRIVER INSTALLATION
The following sections explain how to install the driver software in VxWorks,
Linux and Windows based systems.
3.1 VXWORKS DRIVER INSTALLATION

3.2 LINUX DRIVER INSTALLATION
These instructions presume that you are running Red Hat Linux 6.x, 7.x or a
similar Linux OS. You should be using at least a kernel version 2.2.12 Installation
for any other Red Hat-based system will be similar. For Debian-based systems,
the location of some files may be slightly different.
Installing the driver
To install the driver, copy the driver files to an appropriate directory. You will to
make sure your CD is mounted.
$ mkdir GigMac
$ cd GigMac
$ cp /mnt/cdrom/linux/* .
$ tar vxf dpm-1.12.tar # replace with name on CD
To create a new driver object module:
$ make clean
$ make
Note: If you are installing the GigMac in an SMP machine, you should comment
out the standard CFLAGS line in the “Makefile” and uncomment the SMP version
of CFLAGS before compiling the driver.
To install the driver object module in the file system, become root and run:
# make install
# depmod –a
# insmod dpm.o
Configure the card using your preferred configuration tool, or edit the initialization
script for the interface directly. On Red Hat, the file /etc/sysconfig/network-
scripts/
ifcfg-eth0 might look something like this:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=192.168.1.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
You should also add the following line to /etc/conf.modules similar to this:
alias eth0 dpm
to ensure that the kernel loads the appropriate module.
DSS NETWORKS, INC. Version: 1.12 Page: 11

GigMAC PMC and PCI Controller and Driver Users Manual
Tuning the Installation
To try jumbo frames, the mtu size can be increased using the ifconfig utility, as
follows:
# ifconfig <interface-name> mtu <mtu-size>
eg: ifconfig eth0 mtu 3000
The BUF_SIZE_MAX value in nsm.h (Tunable parameter) should be changed to:
4096 if you enable jumbo frames.
<mtu-size> can be increased up to 4000 bytes for sane operation.
Please see the installation notes for information on functionality testing and
known driver problems.
Using dmUtil dpm driver utility
Examples:

There are several ways to test your adapter on vxWorks, Linux and Windows
platforms. This section provides suggestions on how you may test and verify your
DSS NETWORKS, INC. Version: 1.12 Page: 13

GigMAC PMC and PCI Controller and Driver Users Manual
installation. Before you can proceed with any of the suggested tests, you must
have previously configured your TCP/IP protocols and interfaces on your
computer. Please refer to your online help and User Manuals for your particular
system on instructions on setting up your TCP/IP environment.
 ICMP Ping. Ping is a simple verification method and it very useful for
verification of cabling, adapter configuration and system configuration of the
TCP/IP protocol software. You can also specify a “fast ping” and larger
message sizes in order to more effectively test the protocols and adapter
interface.
 FTP File Transfer. FTP is also an available method for testing your
installation. FTP allows you to test by transferring files of different sizes.
Using large file transfers is a good way to test medium transfer rates thru the
protocol stack.
 HTTP Web Browsing. Is a good means of testing the protocols and interface
to the adapter.
 Telnet. Using Telnet you can log into another system and invoke commands
to send a receive data. You can also test multiple connections within a single
Window by repetitively Telnet’ing back and forth between multiple systems.
 Windows Explorer. In a Windows environment, you can also use the
Windows explorer to access files on other systems within your Workgroup or
Domain.
 Blaster / blaster can be used to perform TCP throughput tests between
VxWorks, Linux and Windows platforms. These test programs are included on
the OEM developer CD.
