include a copy of the 3.0.1 firmware for the PCA200E card in the fore_dnld program. There are various and subtle compatibility issues between the hfa driver and the microcode, this version is belived to work best. If a file is specified on the command line it will be used instead of the embedded image. Approved by: jkh

.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \-i intf
|
|
Specify which ATM interface to download microcode to.
|
|
Default is to load microcode into all FORE Systems host adapters.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B -d path
|
|
Specify the path to prepend to the "objfile" name.
|
|
Default is to use current directory.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B -f objfile
|
|
Specify the microcode binary file. Defaults are:
|
|
"sba200.obj" for SBA-200 adapters,
|
|
"sba200e.obj" for SBA-200E adapters, and
|

.SH NOTES
|
|
.PP
|
|
For the PCA200E adapter, if no file is specified on the command
|
|
line a built-in copy of version 3.0.1 microcode is used.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Microcode as distributed by FORE Systems is not ready for downloading
|
|
directly into SBA host ATM adapters. Instead, the supplied microcode needs
|
|
to be processed with the "objcopy" command to create an image suitable
|
|
for downloading. Arguments to "objcopy" are "-S -l -Fcoff".
|
|
.PP
|
|
Microcode as
|
|
distibuted by FORE Systems for the PCA host ATM adapter does not need
|
|
to be processed.
