1) INTRODUCTION
===============

The Packet driver EN32VLPK.COM for DOS conforms to the Packet Driver
Specification v1.09" developed by FTP Software Inc. 


2) INSTALLATION GUIDE
=====================

    Below is the procedures to install the packet driver.

    1. Copy the packet driver EN32VLPK.COM from the \PKT directory in the
       Driver Diskette to a directory on the harddisk.

    2. Load the packet driver from the DOS command prompt or from the
       AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

       The command syntax for the packet driver is:
	   EN32VLPK [-n] [-d] [-w] <INT=packet_int_no> [IRQ=int_no]
		    [IOADDR=io_addr]

       where:
	   <INT=packet_int_no>  - Software interrupt used to communicate with
				  the packet driver and must be included in the
				  command line. The valid range is from 0x60
				  to 0x80. The most commonly used number is
				  0x60.

				  Note that the PC/TCP kernel, by default, is
				  loaded at interrupt 0x61. So it is not
				  recommended to use 0x61 for the packet
				  driver.

	    [IRQ=int_no]        - Hardware interrupt channel used by the
				  ENET32-VL adapter. Supported values are 3,
				  5, 10 and 15. Optional and if it is not
				  specified, the driver will auto-detect the
				  IRQ used.

	    [IOADDR=io_addr]    - I/O address of the adapter. Optional and if
				  it is not specified, the driver will
				  auto-detect the I/O address used.

	    [-n]                - The [-n] option converts Ethernet type 8137
				  and Novell PSO-like packets. This is required
				  if you use a standard boot ROM, and use the
				  Packet Driver and IPX included in the Packet
				  Driver package as the drivers loaded from
				  the boot image file.

	    [-d]                - The -d option delays initialization. The -d
				  option will keep the initialization code
				  after loading. This is required for making
				  the PROM boot work.

	    [-w]                - The -w switch is to let the packet driver
				  run under Windows.

       The following command line laods the packet driver at software interrupt
       0x60 and auto-detect for the I/O address and IRQ used.

	    EN32VLPK INT=0x60

    3. Network applications can now use the packet driver. One example is
       PC/TCP software from FTP Software Inc. The PC/TCP kernel ETHDRV.EXE
       has to be loaded before PC/TCP applications such as PINK.EXE, FTP.EXE
       or TN.EXE can run. For detailed information on PC/TCP application,
       please refer to the documentation in FTP's PC/TCP Network Software for
       DOS.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
