    				 BRAVO MS AND CABLETRON NETWORK CARD

    PROBLEM
    When using a Cabletron network card E2219, the Bravo MS system will not
    connect to a file server.

    CAUSE
    None.  This is a configuration issue.

    SYSTEMS AFFECTED
    AST PART NUMBER AND DESCRIPTION

    501442-211 BRAVO MS 4/66

    SOLUTION
    The Cabletron network card defaults to DMA 3/IRQ 11 in the ISA Configuration
    Utility program.  If the card is not set to match the settings in the
    ICU program, the card will not function.  If the Quickset program is run and
    the settings are switched from the default of DMA 5/IRQ 5 to match the ICU
    settings of DMA 3/IRQ 11, the network interface card (NIC) works correctly.
