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.


Files needed for installing Lan Server 4.0 for OS2
==================================================

    PNPND.OS2           The NDIS2 driver for IBM OS2 LAN SERVER.
    PNPND.NIF           The installation information 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:\NDIS2 and press <Enter>.

      6) When complete above step to load  PNPND.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 " ISA Plug and Play 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, [PNPND_nif] section
    to let driver locate the right adapter. And you must set DriverName to  be
    PNPND$ and PNPND2$ 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\PNPND.OS2
        ...
    File Name:          C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI
    ----------
        ...
        [IBMLXCFG]
           LANDD_nif   = LANDD.nif
           NETBEUI_nif = NETBEUI.nif
           ODI2NDI_nif = ODI2NDI.nif
           TCPIP_nif   = TCPIP.nif
           PNPND_nif   = PNPND.nif
        ...
        [LANDD_nif]
           DriverName    = LANDD$
           Bindings      = PNPND_nif
           ETHERAND_TYPE = "I"
        ...
        [NETBEUI_nif]
           DriverName    = netbeui$
           Bindings      = PNPND_nif
           ETHERAND_TYPE = "I"
        ...
        [ODI2NDI_nif]
           DriverName = odi2ndi$
           Bindings   = PNPND_nif
        ...
        [TCPIP_nif]
           DriverName = TCPIP$
           Bindings   = PNPND_nif
        [PNPND_nif]
           DriverName    = PNPND$
           IOBASE        = 0x0300
           INTERRUPT     = 5
           EARLYRECEIVE  = 0
           EARLYTRANSMIT = 0
           FULLDUPLEX    = 0
           PNPID         = 0
        [PNPND_nif]
           DriverName    = PNPND2$
           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 ISA PnP mode, you don't have to define INTERRUPT and IOBASE
              in your C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI file, driver will ignore these
              values.
