Configuring Additional LAN Card

Can someone help me configure an additional LAN card in my C3600.

The box was running 10.20 and has been upgraded to 11.00, but I cannot get the additional interface to run. I think I may need to install a driver. I have listed below the output I'm getting from various cmds, on my 11 box and my other C3600 of the same spec which is running 10.20 still.

Any assistance appreciated.

Yes you need a driver in the kernel for that card.
A state of unclaimed in the ioscan means that no driver is claiming the card. The problem now is to find the driver for the card.
It's time to root around..

ioscan status shows that the interface has not been claimed, since it couldn't find the driver for that, so install the particular driver for that interface which will be in os cd.
