My DN3000 has a 3C505 that I got off of eBay in 2012. It does *not* have a boot ROM, just the firmware EEPROMS - National NMC27C64N. Works fine, if I recall correctly. I expect I would have tested it as soon as I got it, and I did an assign an IP address to it. Unfortunately, my "lab notes" are eluding me at present -- they may be offsite from a recent remodel. But I am almost positive I tested it. My Apollo manual on the adapter, 009741-00, "Unpacking and Installing the EtherController-AT" is offsite (5 miles, accessible if needs be). I just dumped the firmware: U15 and U16. From looking at the information online on the 3C505 at Bitsavers, those would be required even in an Apollo -- but only for the on-board processor - the Apollo itself would presumably not even be aware of them, so unless the MAME folks are trying to simulate the processor on the adapter, they would not need these ROMS. Still, let me know if you want me to post the firmware onto my Google drive. I also came across the following in my files, dated in 2012, which indicates, as another post here pointed out, that the Apollo Boot ROM is only needed for diskless boot. That rings true - the manual I cited above would confirm that, if needs be. =========================================================================== ------------------------- Installing an Ethernet Controller in an Apollo DN4000 and Living to Tell About It April 20, 1992 Mark C.

The DN4000 and two of the DN3010 are running SR10.3. The remaining two DN3000 are running SR10.1. We also have an Ethernet connecting a Sun IPX, a PC running ESIX Unix 4.0.3 and three PC's running NCSA Telnet. We wanted to install a gateway so that every machine on the ATR could have access to every machine on the Ethernet. The ESIX Unix box has all our modems connected to it. We were already running tcp/ip over the ATR and Ethernet separately. There is no need to boot anything diskless over Ethernet. 2.0 3C505 Buy a 3Com 3C505 Ethernet card. This is just a generic off the shelf card. I will not have a diskless boot ROM on it. If you have need to boot diskless, you will have to buy the card from Apollo. 3.0 Run the Jumper Program Run /systest/ssr_util/jumpers and set the jumpers on the card. See Figure 1. The jumper program shows two selections for jumper settings. They are actually both the same. Select DIX if you use thick cable, BNC for thin cable. This sets up the card with : DMA Channel 6 I/O Base 300h Interrupt 10 Memory Address : Unit 0 Address 80000 4.0 Test tcp/ip Make sure that tcp/ip is up and running by pinging each host on the ATR. % ping m07 PING m07: 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 198.8.6.54: icmp_seq=0. time=17. ms 64 bytes from 198.8.6.54: icmp_seq=1. time=10. ms 64 bytes from 198.8.6.54: icmp_seq=2. time=11. ms ----m07 PING Statistics---- 3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip (ms) min/avg/max = 10/12/17 5.0 Shut Down the Node Shut down the node and turn off the power. Put the service/normal switch into the service position. 6.0 Installation of the Ethernet Card Install the card into any slot. Power on the node. I did not find it necessary to tell CONFIG that I have installed the 3C505. If you do run CONFIG, set up the machine to have two network controllers, the Ring and the Ethernet card. Select the Ring as the primary network. When I did this, the boot diagnostics had trouble finding the card even though everything worked fine. Try whatever works. I decided not to tell CONFIG about the card so the machine would still automatically boot. I had no problems with this. 7.0 Test the Ethernet Card Press RETURN a few times until you get the '>' MD prompt. Type RE and RETURN a few times until you hear a beep. At the MD prompt again, run TE, just to make sure have not messed up anything. Since we did not put the Ethernet card into the Configuration Tables using CONFIG, TE does not test the card. Don't put the case on yet. Next run EX DEX to actually test the Ethernet card. Select the Ethernet card by typing SELECT ETHER -ALL. Then run the test by typing GO. Put the service/normal switch back into the normal position. 8.0 Boot the Node Start Domain O/S by typing EX DOMAIN_OS and pressing RETURN. The rear LED on the card should blink at about a 1 second rate as the OS boots. 9.0 Edit These Files Login as root and edit the following files. The changed areas are shown in bold larger typeface. For the bigger files, only the portion changed is shown with portion not shown indicated by a string of dots '.'. 9.1 /etc/hosts I've used 198.8.6 for the ATR network and 198.8.7 for the Ethernet network. This machine, the gateway, has two entries (m01 on the ATR and apollo on the Ethernet). This is specified via the ifconfig command in rc.local. If your machines aren't actually on the Internet, you can make up the network addresses. If you are on the Internet, then you have been assigned addresses. Use those. 'localhost' and 'defaultmask' most likely have the values shown. The 'defaultmask' of 255.255.0.0 indicate this is a gateway (by the first 0 entry). A network without gateways would probably want to use 255.255.255.0. 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.0.0 defaultmask 198.8.6.51 s01 # DN3000 198.8.6.52 s02 # DN3000 198.8.6.54 m07 # DN3000 198.8.6.55 m08 # DN3000 198.8.6.56 m01 # DN4000 Gateway 198.8.7.199 apollo # DN4000 Gateway 198.8.7.200 markd # PC Running Telnet 198.8.7.201 johnp # PC Running Telnet 198.8.7.202 deba # PC Running Telnet 198.8.7.203 triton # Sun IPX 9.2 /etc/hosts.equiv Setup per your local conventions. s01 s02 m07 m08 m01 markd johnp deba apollo triton 9.3 /etc/networks Put a line in this file for each network that is being gatewayed through this node. aring 198.8.6 # Apollo Token Ring Network ether 198.8.7 # Ethernet Network 9.4 /etc/rc # # `node_data/etc/rc (DOMAIN/OS version SR10 ) # @(#)rc 4.21 - 90/07/06 # # This script is run by /etc/init during node startup. # To start up a daemon at boot time, create a file of # the same name in the directory /etc/daemons.

A registry node may have rgyd and glbd as well. Your node may have even a different mix. This is what the directory may look like. % ls -laL /etc/daemons drwxrwxrwx+ 1 root staff 1024 Nov 27 19:56 . drwxr-xr-x+ 1 root staff 1024 Nov 27 19:55 .. -rwxrwxrwx+ 2 root staff 4533 Jul 9 18:56 README -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Jul 20 10:40 inetd -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Jul 10 13:55 llbd -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Jul 13 09:35 routed -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Nov 27 16:31 rtsvc -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Nov 27 19:56 rwhod -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Jul 13 09:35 tcpd -rw-r--r-- 1 root sys_admin 0 Nov 27 19:56 timed 12.0 Reboot the Node Shutdown and reboot the node.

On the ATR, you can specify this gateway node as the tcp_admin host. Domain O/S then uses softlinks for these files on each node pointing to this node. Then you only have to keep one set of files up to date. To do this, create these links on the other nodes: ln -s //m01 //x01/etc/tcp_admin ln -s tcp_admin/etc/hosts //x01/etc/hosts ln -s tcp_admin/etc/hosts.equiv //x01/etc/hosts.equiv ln -s tcp_admin/etc/networks //x01/etc/networks Where m01 is the gateway node, and x01 is each of the other nodes in the ATR.
