Installation Instructions and Information for
NE10/100 ISA Adapter Packet Driver

Updated February 1997
********************************************************************

General Information
===================

If your system is not Plug and Play compatible, you must run the 
CONFIG program before starting operating system setup of 
the adapter. For more information, type GENERAL.TXT in \GENERAL
or view the Plug and Play Notes section of README - General
Introduction. CONFIG must be run under DOS.


The NE10/100 ISA adapter's packet driver file, NE100I.EXE, is 
located in the \PACKET directory of the NE10/100 disk.
The NE100I packet driver complies to FTP Software's Revision 1.09
packet driver specifications.

Command Line Options
=======================

The packet driver recognizes the command line options described below. 
Note that, when multiple NE10/100 ISA adapters are installed in a PC,
the -S keyword is required. Otherwise, all keywords are optional.

NOTE: For all keywords that require a parameter, you must put a     
non alphanumeric non dash, non slash (space or '=' or ',' etc) 	  
between the keyword and its parameter, and between keywords.        
The following command lines are valid.				  
    NE100I -i=0x61,-t                              
    NE100I -i 0x61 -t                              
   

Keyword(abbreviation)      Function of parameter
---------------------      ---------------------
-HELP (?)               Displays the command line usage message.

-TERMINATE (T)          Terminates and unloads the packet driver at
                        the specified or default interrupt number. 
                        (see the -i keyword for further information).

-FILENAME (f) path\filename
                        Selects a "keyword file" for further
                        processing. The full path and filename must be 
                        specified. No default filename or path. 

-INTERRUPT (i) 0xhh     Selects the software interrupt number at which
                        the packet driver will be installed or
                        terminated. Packet Driver clients execute an
                        "int 0xnn" to communicate with the driver.
                        "hh" is a hexidecimal number from 0x60 through
                        0x7F. The default parameter is 0x60.  
                   
-MEDIATYPE (m) AUTO	Selects the characterists at which the adapter
               HALF10	will attempt to connect to the LAN. The 10FULL
               FULL10	or 100FULL keywords should be used on full
               HALF100  duplex LANS when media type is not correctly
               FULL100  detected(some HUBS and SWITCHES allow either
                        half or full duplex connections).  
                        The default parameter is AUTO.
            
-SERIAL (s) 0xhhhhhh    Selects which adapter (when more than one
                        adapter exists). "hhhhhh" is the last 6 digits
                        of the IEEE address assigned to the adapter.
                        The number can be obtained from the CONFIG
                        program, or from the MAC = sticker on 
                        the adapter.

-USE32BITIO (u) NO      Selects whether 32 bit I/O instructions are 
                YES     used for the transfer of data from the adapter
                        to memory. Some machines garble data when 32
                        bit i/o is performed. The default is NO.

-LINKINTEGRITY (l) ON	Selects whether valid link information is  
                   OFF	transmitted by the adapter.  Some older hubs
                        do not support the transmission of valid link
                        information. The default parameter is ON.

Command Line Examples
----------------------

NE100I      Will load the packet driver using all default values.
            Equivalent to NE100I i=0x60,-M=AUTO,-U=NO,-L=ON.
      
NE100I -t   Will terminate the packet driver at Software Interrupt
            Number 0x60.  Equivilent to NE100I -i=0x60,-t.  

NE100I -f=C:\packet\pkt_drvr.ini  
            Will load the packet driver using the keywords and values
            specified in the keyword file "C:\packet\pkt_drvr.ini".

Note: To view the available keyword values supported by the 
NE10/100 ISA adapter, go back to the main menu of README and select
Keywords or type the KEYWORDS.TXT file in the GENERAL directory.
