Keyword Definition
------------------
Node Address - This keyword specifies the node address (in hex) used
by the adapter. This option is used only to override
the node address stored in the adapter. If this keyword
is included, the specified address will be used
instead of the adapter's actual node address.
PORT - This keyword specifies the I/O base address used by the
adapter. This value must match the actual I/O base address
setting on the adapter. If this keyword is not specified,
the default value will be put into effect.
INT - This keyword specifies the interrupt line used by the adapter.
This value must match the actual IRQ setting on the adapter.
If this keyword is not specified, the default value will be put
into effect.
FRAME - This keyword specifies the supported frame types. Four types
are available:
ETHERNET_802.3
ETHERNET_802.2
ETHERNET_II
ETHERNET_SNAP
UTP - This keyword specifies the UTP port on the adapter.
BNC - This keyword specifies the BNC port on the adapter.
AUI - This keyword specifies the AUI port on the adapter.
AUTODETECT - This keyword specifies auto-detection of the port used
by the adapter.
SA - This keyword searches for all DE-220 Family Ethernet adapters.
EarlyTx - This keyword enable the Early Transmit packet function, it
will improve the performance.
JITIOFF - This keyword disable the "Just In Time Interrupt" function.
3.2 Netware Server and Client 32 for DOS/WIN31 Keywords Available
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This note lists the available keywords NetWare Server and
Client 32 for DOS/WIN31 device driver users.
AutoSearch Card Switch:
The "AutoSearch Card Switch" specify the methods of searching
adapter card's I/O Base Address. If you select "SearchOff" ,
you must specify the right "Port" or "Slot" number in the
"Port" or "Slot Number" options. The default value is "(none)".
Our driver will do all things automatically.
Is the card a Legacy ISA card ? :
The "Is the card a Legacy ISA Card ?" specify that your adapter
card is Non-PnP or PnP disable card model. If your card is
Non-PnP or PnP disable , select the "ISA" value. If your card
is PnP enable card , select "(none)" or ignore it.
Port:
The "Port" specify your adapter card's I/O Base Address.If you
select "ISA" value in "Is the card a Legacy ISA Card?" option,
you need to select a value which you actually know or ignore it.
Usually, the driver will search the card's I/O Base Address
automatically.
Slot Number:
The "Slot Number" specify your adapter card's Slot Number. If you
select "(none)" or ignore the value in "IS the card a Legacy ISA
Card? " option. you need to select a value which you actually know
or ignore it. Our driver will search the card's Slot Number
automatically.
Early Transmit Switch:
The "Early Transmit Switch" specify Transmit Methods.
"1" -> Enable Early Transmit
"0" -> Disable Early Transmit
default -> Disable Early Transmit
JITI Function Switch:
The "JITI Function Switch" specify JITI functional.
The meaning of values are as following:
"1" -> Enable JITI Function
"0" -> Disable JITI Function
default -> Enable JITI Function
