How do you support multiple NIC segments within RS/6000 running with            
Netware?

A: I assume that NIC refers to Network Interface Card.  NetWare will            
support multiple network interface cards on the same server, as long            
as the internal network number and the NetWare network number are               
set properly.                                                                   
                                                                                
Page 6 of "Crafting NetWare for AIX Installing and Configuring NetWare         
for AIX/6000" (GG24-3686-00) gives the following details:                       
                                                                                
   These are 8-digit hexadecimal numbers that help to uniquely identify         
   servers and LANs.  The NetWare network number must be the same for           
   all servers on a specific Netware LAN (e.g. a single Token-ring).            
   The internal network number must be unique for each server in a LAN.         
   The combination of both the NetWare network and internal network             
   number identifies a unique address in the NetWare internet and a             
   unique server and network interface pairing.
