Introduction:
=============

  The Ethernet NDIS2 Driver for LAN MANAGER DOS workstations 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.


Contents of the Subdirectory:
=============================

    LMDOS.TXT		 This file.
    EP312.DOS		 The NDIS2 driver for Lan Requester DOS workstations.
    PROTOCOL.INI	 Sample protocol.ini file.
    ..\..\NIF\EP312.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.

  Installing driver procedure on LAN MANAGER DOS WorkStation:
  -----------------------------------------------------------

     1) If you install LAN Manager for the first time, you Install LAN Manager
	to your HardDisk by running SETUP.EXE program from the setup diskette.
	Upon completion of the workstation's last disk installation, you  will
	be asked if you want to import additional network drivers.Answer "YES".

	If you have already installed LAN Manager  in  your  hard  disk ,  run
	SETUP.EXE from	HardDisk and select "Actions"->"Import Network Driver"
	option.

     2) Insert the NDIS2  driver  diskette into drive 'A' and follow the steps
	on the screen. Select the "SureCom EP-312V Ethernet Adapter" and press
	"enter", then SETUP.EXE  program  will copy the necessary NDIS2 driver
	programs from the driver diskette to  your hard disk, according to LAN
	MANAGER file structure.

     3) Reboot your computer for the changes to take effect.



  NOTE:
  -----
  Multiple Lan Adapters in a system:
       If  you want to install mutiple Lan adapter in your system, you have to
       us the keyword, PNPID, in PROTOCOL.INI file at LAN MANAGER directory to
       let  driver locate the right adapter. And you must set DriverName to be
       EP312$ and EP3122$ for two different adapters. You can run A:\SETUP.EXE
       under DOS prompt to show all the Ethernet addresses of your adapters.


Configuration Files:
====================

    Sample of configuration file:
    -----------------------------
    (Suppose the Lan Requester package is installed at C:\NET directory)

    File Name:		C:\CONFIG.SYS
    ----------
	LASTDRIVE=Z
	DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\PROTMAN\PROTMAN.DOS /i:C:\LANMAN.DOS
	DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ETHERNET\EP312\EP312.DOS
	DEVICE=C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\PROTOCOL\NETBEUI\NETBEUI.DOS

    File Name:		C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
    ----------
	(Suppose Computer name is set to AAA)
	C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\PROTMAN\NETBIND
	NET START WORKSTATION AAA


    File Name:		C:\LANMAN.DOS\PROTOCOL.INI
    ----------
	[PROTOCOL MANAGER]
	  DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$
	[NETBEUI_XIF]
	  Drivername = netbeui$
	  BINDINGS   = "EP312_NIF"
	[EP312_NIF]
	  IOBASE     = 0x300
	  INTERRUPT  = 5
	  DRIVERNAME = EP312$
	  EARLYRECEIVE	= 0
	  EARLYTRANSMIT = 0
	[EP312_NIF]
	  IOBASE     = 0x300
	  INTERRUPT  = 5
	  DRIVERNAME = EP3122$
	  EARLYRECEIVE	= 0
	  EARLYTRANSMIT = 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 property or let the  value  to  be
				    zero ( i.e. PNPID=0 ) if there  is only
				    one adapter in your system.

				    Note:  Please  remember  to  enter	the
					   double quotes.

	EARLYTRANSMIT		    This keyword is used  to  enable  turbo
				    transmission mode for accelerating data
				    transmission.

	EARLYRECEIVE		    This keyword is  used  to  enable turbo
				    transmission mode for accelerating data
				    receiption.

	FULLDUPLEX		    This  keyword  is  used  to enable full
				    duplex mode.

	Note:	For  PnP mode,the IOBASE and INTERRUPT keywords are ignored
		in your PROTOCOL.INI file.
