Introduction:
=============

  The  Ethernet  NDIS2	Driver for IBM OS2 LAN SERVER confirms to the Network
  Driver Interface Specification(NDIS2). This document shows you how to setup
  the driver and how  to  use  the  enhanced  functions by setting the custom
  keywords in configuration file.


Contents of the Subdirectory:
=============================

    EP312.OS2		The NDIS2 driver for IBM OS2 LAN SERVER.
    EP312.NIF		The installation information file.
    LSOS2.TXT		This file.



Installation:
=============

  Before starting with the installation process, make sure that the adapter
  is properly installed and configured. You  can use the diagnostic program
  (A:\SETUP.EXE) to make sure your connection  with the network is correct.

  Installation by using IBM OS2 LAN SERVER Installation utility:
  ---------------------------------------------------------
    Please  install  the  IBM  LAN  SERVER OS2	driver	files following the
    procedures as described in the following.

      1) Install  OS/2	LAN SERVER  to	HardDisk  and  install PNP Ethernet
	 adapter in your system properly.

      2) In OS/2 window, Click the "MPTS" icon.

      3) The screen will display the IBM Log panel, press "OK".

      4) Select "Install" button.

      5) Insert the PNP Ethernet driver diskette, specify  the driver  path
	 A:\LANSVR40.OS2 and press <Enter>.

      6) When complete above step to load  EP312.OS2  into OS/2 system,then
	 configure your system.

      7) The same step as step 4, select "Configure" button.

      8) The  screen  will  display "Configure" dialog box and select "LAN
	 adapters and protocols" then press "configure" button.

      9) The screen will display " LAPS  Configuration "  dialog box, move
	 highlight to " SURECOM EP-312V  Ethernet  Adapter"item in"Network
	 Adapter" window, and select "NetBios" "IEEE802.2" protocol. Press
	 "OK".

     10) Installation is complete now.Reset your PC by turning it  off and
	 on.



  NOTE:
  -----
  Multiple Lan Adapters in a system:
    If you want to install mutiple Lan adapter in your system, you have to use
    the  keyword,  PNPID , in C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI file, [EP312_nif] section
    to let driver locate the right adapter. And you must set DriverName to  be
    EP312$ and EP3122$ for two different adapters. You can use the  diagnostic
    program (A:\SETUP.EXE) under DOS prompt to show all the Ethernet addresses
    of your adapters.


Configuration Files:
====================

    Sample of configuration file:
    -----------------------------

    File Name:		C:\CONFIG.SYS
    ----------
	...
	Device=C:\IBMCOM\MACS\EP312.OS2
	...
    File Name:		C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI
    ----------
	...
	[IBMLXCFG]
	   LANDD_nif   = LANDD.nif
	   NETBEUI_nif = NETBEUI.nif
	   ODI2NDI_nif = ODI2NDI.nif
	   TCPIP_nif   = TCPIP.nif
	   EP312_nif   = EP312.nif
	...
	[LANDD_nif]
	   DriverName	 = LANDD$
	   Bindings	 = EP312_nif
	   ETHERAND_TYPE = "I"
	...
	[NETBEUI_nif]
	   DriverName	 = netbeui$
	   Bindings	 = EP312_nif
	   ETHERAND_TYPE = "I"
	...
	[ODI2NDI_nif]
	   DriverName = odi2ndi$
	   Bindings   = EP312_nif
	...
	[TCPIP_nif]
	   DriverName = TCPIP$
	   Bindings   = EP312_nif
	[EP312_nif]
	   DriverName	 = EP312$
	   IOBASE	 = 0x0300
	   INTERRUPT	 = 5
	   EARLYRECEIVE  = 0
	   EARLYTRANSMIT = 0
	   FULLDUPLEX	 = 0
	   PNPID	 = 0
	[EP312_nif]
	   DriverName	 = EP3122$
	   IOBASE	 = 0x0320
	   INTERRUPT	 = 9
	   EARLYRECEIVE  = 0
	   EARLYTRANSMIT = 0
	   FULLDUPLEX	 = 0
	   PNPID	 = 0



    Custom Keywords:
    ----------------
	PNPID = hhhhhhhhhhhh	     This keyword is the Ethernet Address of
				     the adapter you want to drive. If there
				     are more than one ethernet  adapters in
				     your  system ,  you  have	to  use this
				     keyword to let driver locate  the right
				     adapter. However, you don't have to use
				     this  keyword  or	let the value  to be
				     zero (i.e. PNPID = 0) if  there is only
				     one adapter in your system.

	EARLYTRANSMIT		     This  keyword  is	used to enable turbo
				     transmission mode for accelerating data
				     transmission.

	EARLYRECEIVE		     This keyword  is  used  to enable turbo
				     receiption mode  for  accelerating data
				     receiption.

	FULLDUPLEX		     This  keyword is  used  to  enable full
				     duplex mode.


	Note: For PnP mode, you don't have to define INTERRUPT and IOBASE in
	      your  C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI  file ,  driver will ignore these
	      values.
