Keywords supported by the Microdyne NE10/100 ISA Drivers

Keyword:        MEDIATYPE
Description:    Specifies which physical medium is attached to the 
                adapter. The default is automatic configuration.
Legal values:   Auto (automatic configuration)
                Half10  (10BASE-T)
                Full10  (10BASE-T full duplex)
                Half100 (100BASE-TX)
                Full100 (100BASE-TX full duplex)
Default:        Auto
Used By:        All drivers


Keyword:        NETWORKADDRESS
Type:           Any legal Ethernet value
Description:    Overrides the NE10/100 adapter's unique Ethernet
                hardware address.
Legal values:   xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx (an Ethernet hardware address,
                where xx is a hexadecimal byte value)
Used By:        NDIS3 drivers


Keyword:        NODEADDRESS
Type:           Any legal Ethernet value
Description:    Overrides the NE10/100 adapter's unique Ethernet
                hardware address.
Legal values:   xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx (an Ethernet hardware address, where
                xx is a hexadecimal byte value)
Used By:        All ODI drivers


Keyword:        RXEARLY
Description:    Use the RXEARLY keyword to DISABLE RX EARLY interrupt 
                generation (pipelined processing of receive packets,
                also called Early Receives). Using RXEARLY ON improves
                performance by reducing receive latency, but increases
                the CPU overhead incurred by the driver.
                Legal Values:	ON, OFF
Default:        OFF 
Used By:        NDIS, ODI except OS/2

Keyword:        SERIAL
Type:           6 hexadecimal digits
Description:    Keyword is required when more than one NE10/100 ISA
                adapter is in the PC. The last 6 digits of the IEEE
                address of the adapter is the parameter for this
                keyword. The IEEE address is on a bar-coded 'MAC="
                label on the adapter.
Legal Values:   XXXXXX - the six hex digits described above.
                For NDIS2 and NDIS3 preceed number with # sign.
Used By:        All drivers


Keyword:        USE32BITIO
Description:    Prevents driver from performing 32-bit I/O operations
                to the adapter. Some PCI/ISA motherboard chip sets
                have problems with this 32-bit operation and the
                results are data corruption.
Legal Values:   ON, OFF
Default:        OFF
Used By:        All


Command Line Operaters for the Packet Driver
--------------------------------------------

Operator:       /?
Description:    Displays screen of valid Keywords

Operator:       FILENAME
Description:    specifies complete path to keyword file

Operator:       INTERRUPT
Description:    Specifies the software interrupt through which the
                packet 	driver will communicate.
Legal Values:   Any valid interrupt (0xnn)
Default:        0x60

Operator:       TERMINATE
Description:    Attempt to terminate the packet driver at the
                interrupt specified (must use Interrupt keyword for
                termination of drivers not at default interrupt.
Default:        0x60
