; RoamAbout specific configuration parameters:
;
;       For more information on the configuration parameters, refer to the 
;       the RoamAbout 802.11 User's Guide.

;       WARNING: Parameter values are case sensitive. There may be other
;       platforms in your network that are case insensitive, and that 
;       automatically convert all lower case characters to upper case. If that 
;       is your situation, you should enter the Wireless_Network_Name in upper
;       case.

; BASIC parameters:

;   Wireless_Network_Name: 0..32 printable character string.
;       This specifies the network this station is to connect to.
;       When this parameter is omitted, or is specified as an empty string or as
;       "ANY", the station may connect to any network it finds.
;       This information should be provided by your network supervisor.
Wireless_Network_Name = "RoamAbout Default Network Name"

;   Station_Name: 0..32 printable character string.
;       Plain-text name of this station. Used for diagnostic purposes.
Station_Name = "My Default Compuer Name"

; ADVANCED parameters (specify only when really needed):

;   Distance between AP's: decimal value
;       Valid values:
;       1 = Large distance,
;       2 = Medium distance,
;       3 = Small distance
;       Default value: 1
;   Specifies the distance between the Access Points in your network.
;   This information should be provided by your network supervisor.
;AP_Distance = 1

;   Port_Type = decimal value.
;       Valid values:
;       1 = BSS,
;       3 = Adhoc demo mode,
;       Default value: 1,
;   Port_Type defines the connection control characteristics:,
;   BSS is for 'normal' network operation as a STA,
;   Adhoc demo mode is a static IBSS without MAC Management.,
;Port_Type = 1

;   Medium_Reservation: decimal value.
;       Valid values: 0..2437
;       Default value: 2347
;   Specifies the number of octets in a message or fragment above which a
;   RTS/CTS handshake is performed to reserve the medium for the message or
;   fragment transmission. Setting the value to 2347 disables this mechanism.
;   Medium_Reservation is advised to be used in the following case:
;   - Environments with known "hidden" stations, like a (single) cell where
;     many stations are located at the periphery at maximum range from the AP.
;Medium_Reservation = 2347

;   MAC_Address: 12 Hex digits.
;       Specifies a local MAC address, that will be used instead of the card’s
;       own universal MAC address. If required, this information should be
;       provided by your network supervisor.
;MAC_Address = 02xxxxxxxx

;   Card_Power_Management = 1 character
;       Valid values:  Y, N
;       Default value: N
;   Card_Power_Management is used to enable or disable the station to use
;   Power Management in an ESS.
;Card_Power_Management = N

;   Maximum_Sleep_Duration: decimal value
;       Valid range: 1 - 6553
;       Default value: 100
;   Maximum_Sleep_Duration specifies the maximum time the station is allowed
;   to spend consecutively in DOZE state, used to determine the Listen
;   Interval on the station's Power Management scheme.
;Maximum_Sleep_Duration = 100

;   Receive_All_Multicasts: 1 character
;       Valid values:  Y, N
;       Default value: Y
;   Receive_All_Multicasts specifies whether the station must receive all
;   multicast frames (with addresses specified by the protocol stack) when
;   using Power Management. When this is the case, the station will have to
;   wake up frequently to receive the multicast frames. This causes less
;   optimal power savings.
;Receive_All_Multicasts = Y

; Encryption parameters: (specify only when really needed)

;   Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption enables you to encrypt all
;   data that will be transmitted via the wireless LAN medium.
;   WEP is supported by RoamAbout encrytption PC Cards (40 bit and 128 bit). To 
;   use WEP within your network all RoamAbout APs and wireless stations must
;   be equipped with RoamAbout PC Cards that support encryption that have been
;   configured to use identical encryption keys.
;   Up to 4 different keys to decrypt data received via the wireless interface
;   can be entered.
;   One of these 4 keys can be selected to encrypt wireless data that is to be
;   transmitted via the wireless interface.
;
;   Note: Enabling WEP encryption on wireless stations does not affect the
;   ability of your computer to interpret non-encrypted data traffic: i.e.
;   when you enable encryption, your computer will be able to receive both
;   encrypted and non-encrypted messages with one of the listed WEP
;   Encryption Key Values.

;       Enable_Encryption: 1 character
;           Valid values:  Y, N
;           Default value: N
;   Enables or disables encryption.
;Enable_Encryption = N

;   Key<n>: 5/13 character string or 10/26 digit hex number (n in range 1..4)
;   Depending on encryption type, keys are either 40 or 128 bits long.
;   40 bits keys are supported on the 40 & 128 bit cards.
;   128 bits keys are supported on the 128 bit card only.
;   The keys can be specified in ASCII or in hex. In case the ASCII form is
;   used, a key must be either 5 or 13 characters. In case of the hex form,
;   a key must start with '0x' followed by 10 or 26 hex digits. Up to 4 keys
;   can be specified. When multiple keys are specified, the form as well as
;   the length of the keys need not be the same. If the Card does not support
;   128 bits keys, the length is truncated to 40 bits without warning.
;Key1 abcde
;Key2 0x123456789a
;Key3 abcdefghijkl2
;Key4 0x112233445566778899AABBCCDD

;   Transmit_Key_ID: decimal value
;       Valid values: 1,2,3 or 4
;       Default value: 1
;   If you enable WEP encryption, you can select one key for wireless data
;   transmissions from the list of WEP Encryption Key Values.
;Transmit_Key_ID = 1

; Packet Driver specific configuration parameters:

;       Driver_Class: 1 or 11, default = 1.
;       Specifies the Packet Driver Class, that is reported by the driver in
;       response to the driver_info() function.
;       This is dependent on the need of your protocol stack.
;         Class 1 uses the DIX Ethernet (Ethernet V2.0) frame format.
;         Class 11 uses the IEEE 802.3 with 802.2 headers frame format.
;Driver_Class = 11

;       Novell_Flag: Yes/No, default = No.
;       "Yes" specifies support for Novell's IPX Ethernet_802.3 frame format.
;Novell_Flag = No

;   Packet_Interrupt: 60..70 (hex values), default = 60.
;       Specifies the software interrupt for access to this driver.
;Packet_Interrupt = 60
