                   NDIS 2 Driver Installation 

EN2220/EN2225 has NDIS 2 driver support for the following environments:

   - Microsoft LAN Manager 
   - IBM LAN Support Program

Before you execute the NDIS 2 driver, you have to execute the EN2220/EN2225
card enabling program CBOPEN.EXE first.

The EN2220/EN2225 Microsoft LAN Manager NDIS driver and installation files are
stored under the \MSLANMAN.DOS directory on the driver disk:

   \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ACCTON\ETHCB

       ACCND2.DOS          The DOS NDIS MAC driver
       PROTOCOL.INI        A sample PROTOCOL.INI file

   \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\NIF

       ETHCB.NIF           Installation Network Information File

The EN2220/EN2225 NDIS driver support for other environments are stored under the
\NDIS directory.  The organization of this directory is as follows:

Sample PROTOCOL.INI Files and Parameters
----------------------------------------

[ETHCB_NIF]

  DRIVERNAME = ACCND2$
; Slot = 1            ;; {1-16}
; SIA_Mode = AUTODETECT
; {SIA_Mode = TP, TP_FULL_DUPLEX, AUTODETECT}
; DATA_RATE = MB10   ;; {MB10, MB100}

There are several parameters included in the ETHCB_NIF section of the
PROTOCOL.INI file. However, the only parameter that is necessary to specify
is the "DRIVERNAME."

If you change other parameter settings, such as the SIA_MODE, make sure
that it matches the hardware setting.  Otherwise, the card may fail.

If you don't specify these settings, the NDIS/2 driver will try to detect them
automatically.

SLOT        Specifies which CardBus PC Card is activated by the driver.  If you
            have only one EN2220/EN2225 card in your machine, this parameter
            is unnecessary.  For two or more EN2220/EN2225 cards, this
            parameter is required and cannot be omitted from PROTOCOL.INI.
            For the first EN2220/EN2225, set Slot=1, and for the second one, set  
            Slot=2, etc.

SIA_MODE    Specifies the medium type used by the card.  Acceptable values 
            for this parameter are AUTODETECT, TP, and TP_FULL_DUPLEX. If you 
            didn't specify this parameter, it would be set to AUTODETECT.

DATA_RATE   Specifies the line speed.  Default value is MB100.

            MB100: 100Mbps, MB10: 10Mbps

TX_THRESHOLD
            Specifies the FIFO threshold level during packet transmission.
            Acceptable values are:
