- TCP/IP.................Configuration notes and examples
-
- This document applies to the EtherExpress(tm) 16, 16TP, 16C, FLASH,
- FLASH TP, FLASHC, MCA, and MCA/TP. It does not explain how to
- configure an EtherExpress board. For instructions about configuring
- the board, see either the Expert's Guide or the Complete Guide for
- your board.
-
- This document (or an updated version) is also available on FaxBACK,
- document #6319.

- ARE THE ETHEREXPRESS CARDS TCP/IP COMPATIBLE?
- ---------------------------------------------
- Intel does not sell TCP/IP software, however, TCP/IP software may be
- purchased from several different vendors. Intel provides NDIS, ODI,
- and packet drivers that work with most TCP/IP software. First,
- determine if the TCP/IP software is NDIS, ODI, or packet driver compliant
- and then find the section below that applies.
-
-
- NDIS GENERAL:
- -------------
- Intel's EtherExpress 16 NDIS driver conforms to Microsoft's NDIS
- Specification version 2.0.1. If the TCP/IP software is NDIS compliant,
- use the NDIS drivers. These drivers are on the EtherExpress diskette in
- the NDIS subdirectory:
-
- NDIS\EXP16.DOS (for DOS)
- NDIS\EXP16.OS2 (for OS/2)
-
- The following section should be added to the existing PROTOCOL.INI
- file. A sample PROTOCOL.INI is located in the NDIS subdirectory.
-
- [EXP16]
- IOADDRESS = 0x300
- DRIVERNAME = EXP16$
-
- NOTE: The IOADDRESS must be modified to match the I/O address of the
- card. The EXP16$ must be in capital letters.
-
- NOTE: For more information on NDIS, see the NDIS.TXT readme file.
-
-
- NDIS AND BANYAN VINES:
- ----------------------
- The version of TCP/IP supplied with Banyan Vines 4.X does not support NDIS
- drivers. To use TCP/IP with an NDIS driver, you will need to purchase a
- version of TCP/IP that supports NDIS. We recommend you call your Banyan
- support representative for more information.
-
-
- ODI GENERAL:
- ------------
- The ODI driver conforms to Novell's ODI Specification. If the TCP/IP
- software is ODI compliant, use the ODI drivers. These drivers are on the
- diskette in the NETWARE.ODI subdirectory.
-
- NETWARE.ODI\EXP16ODI.COM (for DOS)
- NETWARE.ODI\EXP16ODI.SYS (for OS/2)
-
- ODI drivers use a NET.CFG file.
-
- An example of the ODI NET.CFG from a Lan WorkPlace for DOS set up follows:
-
- Link Support
- Buffers 8 1586
- MemPool 4096
-
- Protocol IPX
- Bind EXP16ODI <--Bind 1, if using IPXODI v2.x or later
-
- Protocol TCPIP
- Bind EXP16ODI <--delete this line if using IPXODI v2.x or later
- ip_address xxx
-
- Link Driver EXP16ODI
- Port 300
- Frame ETHERNET_802.3 <--Order of frames here is important
- Frame ETHERNET_II
- Protocol IPX 0 ETHERNET_802.3
-
- NOTE: The Port parameter must be modified to match the I/O address of
- the card.
-
-
- PACKET DRIVERS:
- ---------------
- We provide a packet driver for the EtherExpress card which conforms to the
- FTP packet driver specification v1.07. If the TCP/IP packages allow you
- to use packet drivers, use the packet drivers in the PACKET subdirectory.
-
- NOTE: For more information on packet drivers, see the PACKET.TXT readme
- file.

- FTP SOFTWARE'S PC/TCP FOR NDIS: FaxBACK #6321
- ----------------------------------------------
-
- NOTE: For more information on using the NDIS driver with FTP PC/TCP, see
- the PCTCP.TXT readme file.
-
-
- SUN'S PCNFS WITH NDIS: FAXBACK doc # 6320
- -----------------------------------------
-
- NOTE: For more information on using the NDIS driver with SUN PCNFS, see
- the PCNFS.TXT readme file.
