- ;PROTOCOL.INI PARAMETERS
- ;
- ; This is a sample PROTOCOL.INI file for the NCRTRN NCR Token-Ring Adapter NDIS
- ; MAC driver. The [ncrtrn] section shows examples of NCRTRN configuration
- ; parameter settings. Comments at the end of the file explain these parameters
- ; and give their default, minimum and maximum values. The [protocol manager]
- ; and [netbeui] sections aren't meant to be complete or realistic examples,
- ; except for the "BINDINGS = ncrtrn" line in the [netbeui] section.
- ; The only parameter that must be specified is the "drivername". Note
- ; that many of these parameters have default values (which are given below
- ; under "Comments about ncrtrn parameters"). A parameter need not be specified
- ; in your PROTOCOL.INI if its default value is satisfactory.
- ;
- ;drivername
- ; units:[n/a]
- ; range:[ncrtrn$,ncrtrn2$,ncrtrn3$,...]
- ; default:[ncrtrn$]
- ;
- ; This parameter's value must be ncrtrn$, or, in the case where
- ; multiple adapters are installed, ncrtrn$ for the first adapter's
- ; drivername, ncrtrn2$ for the second one, ncrtrn3$ for the third, and
- ; so on.
- ;
- ;The following entries are optional under the [ncrtrn] section.
- ;
- ;interrupt
- ; units:[integer]
- ; range:[2-7]
- ; default:[2]
- ;
- ; Indicates the interrupt level of the network adapter card. The default
- ; value for ncrtrn$ is 2, and the default value for ncrtrn2$ is 8. Values
- ; for each ncrtrn driver must be unique.
- ;
- ; NOTE: On an 80286 or 80386 computer, if you specify interrupt level 2,
- ; it is redirected to interrupt level 9 because the cascaded programmable
- ; interrupt control (PIC) is already using interrupt level 2.
- ;
- ;max_xmt_size
- ; units:[bytes]
- ; range:[64-4472]
- ; default:[2040]
- ;
- ; Specifies the size of the transmit buffers, in bytes. The default is
- ; 2040.
- ;
- ;node_address
- ; units:[hex]
- ; range:[400000000000-40007FFFFFFF]
- ; default:[n/a]
- ;
- ; Overrides the network address of the network adapter card. This entry
- ; should only be use if, for some reason, there are duplicate addresses
- ; on the network. The value is a hexadecimal string of 12 digits enclosed
- ; in quotation marks. The addresses must be in the range 400000000000
- ; through 40007FFFFFFF. For strict IBM compatibility, use only decimal
- ; digits (0-9), as in "400001020304". The ncrtrn driver provides a unique
- ; default value for each network adapter.
- ;
- ;port_address
- ; units:[hex]
- ; range:[0A20-1A20]
- ; default:[0A20]
- ;
- ; Indicates the base I/O address for the network adapter card. This entry
- ; must match the adapter card's I/O address jumper settings. The default
- ; is 0A20 for the first network adapter card and 1A20 for the second.
- ;
- ;product_id
- ; units:[hex]
- ; range:[0-36 hex digits]
- ; default:[0910F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0]
- ;
- ; Identifies the specific network adapter card. The value of this entry
- ; is a string of up to 36 hex digits (must be an even number). Refer to
- ; the IBM Token-Ring architecture manual for more details. The default
- ; value for this entry is 0910F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0.
- ;
- ;shared_ram
- ; units:[hex]
- ; range:[CA00-D600]
- ; default:[0xD000]
- ;
- ; Specifies the physical RAM location on the network adapter card if the
- ; default location is not adeuate. Values for each ncrtrn driver must be
- ; unique. The default value for ncrtrn$ is 0xD000, and the default value
- ; for ncrtrn$ is 0xD00. Valid values depend on the adapter card model and
- ; revision level. Check the documentation provided with the adapter card
- ; for an accurate list.
