Sample PROTOCOL.INI Files and Parameters
----------------------------------------
[LNE100_NIF]
DriverName = LNE100$
; Slot = 1 ;; {1-4}
; SIA_Mode = AUTODETECT
; {SIA_Mode = UTP, UTP_FD,UTP_100,UTP_100FD, AUTODETECT}
There are several parameters included in the LNE100_NIF section of the
PROTOCOL.INI file. However, the only parameter that you should specify
is the "drivername."
If you change other parameter settings, such as the SIA_MODE, make sure
that it matches the hardware setting. Otherwise, the adapter may fail.
If you don't specify these settings, Linksys's NDIS 2
driver will automatically detect them.
SLOT Specifies which network adapter is used by the driver. If you have
only one Linksys LNE100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter(LNE100TX v4)
in your machine, this parameter is unnecessary! For two or more
Linksys's PCI LAN cards, this parameter
is required and cannot be omitted from PROTOCOL.INI. For the
first LNE100TX adapter, Slot=1, and the second one, Slot=2, third,
Slot=3,..., etc.
SIA_MODE Specifies the medium type used by the adapter.
Acceptable values for this parameter are AUTODETECT, UTP, UTP_FD
,UTP_100 and UTP_100FD. If you didn't specify this settings it
would be AUTODETECT for LNE100TX.
UTP: 10BaseT, UTP_100: Fast Ethernet (100BaseTx)
UTP_FD: 10BaseT with Full_Duplex
UTP_100FD: 100BaseTx with Full_Duplex
Default: AUTODETECT
