These are the LAN Drivers for Token-Ring. Below is a DESCRIPTION of EACH file
in this kit:
ATOKENA2.obj -| These are the NEW 286 OS Token-Ring Drivers. They will
BTOKENA2.obj |__ be configurable by TRConfig.com. They need to be gen'ed
CTOKENA2.obj | with NETGEN. These drivers work with RPL.vp1 to support
DTOKENA2.ojb -| Remote Program Load. The DEFAULT Transmit Buffer Size is
set to 2048 to allow MORE SERVICE Processes.
SLANSUP.obj - This is the OBJECT code for SLANSUP.com. It can be gen'ed
with the customer's IPX (if desired).
ROUTE.com - This is the Source Routing Driver for the DOS Workstation.
It can be used with EITHER the SLANSUP.com or STOKEN.com. It
should be loaded AFTER IPX and BEFORE the SHELL.
Type ROUTE ? for a HELP Panel.
ROUTE.nlm - This is the Source Routing Driver for NetWare 386. It should
be loaded AFTER TOKEN.lan.
ROUTE.vp0 - This is the Source Routing VAP for the NetWare 286 OS. It
needs to be put on the SYS:SYSTEM directory of the OS. After
it is loaded on the OS, type ROUTE ? for a description of its
parameters. It is named ROUTE.vp0 because it should be the
FIRST VAP that is loaded.
RPL.vp1 - This is the Remote Program Load VAP for the NetWare 286 OS.
It needs to be put on the SYS:SYSTEM directory of the OS.
RPCONFIG.com - This is the Configuration utility for RPL.vp1. It is menu
driven. Just type RPCONFIG and it will help you along.
SRCONFIG.com - This is the Configuration utility for ROUTE.vp0. It is menu
driven. Just type SRCONFIG and it will help you along.
TOKEN.lan - This is the IBM Token-Ring 386 Driver.
TOKEN.rpl - This is the file that RPL.vp1 uses to DOWNLOAD to the
WORKSTATION when the RPL boot ROM requests to be loaded.
It needs to be put on the SYS:LOGIN directory of the OS,
IF RPL is REQUIRED.
TRCONFIG.com - This is the Configuration utility for ATOKENA2.obj,
BTOKENA2.obj, CTOKENA2.obj, and DTOKENA2.obj. Just type
TRCONFIG and it will help you along.
STOKEN.obj - This is the OBJECT module for STOKEN.com. It may be gen'ed
with the customer's IPX to create an IPX.com.
CONFIGURING the DOS Workstation:
This discussion refers to 2 versions of IPX.com: SLANSUP.com and STOKEN.com.
Both files are generated to IPX.com; the difference in names is used here
merely to make a distinction between the IPX.com generated for the LAN
Support Program (SLANSUP.obj) and that generated with STOKEN.obj.
<SLANSUP>.com - This is a Client IPX Driver for the IBM Token-Ring generated
with the IBM LAN Support Program. It works with ROUTE.com if
Source Routing is REQUIRED. Its DEFAULT Transmit Buffer Size
is 1024.
<STOKEN>.com - This is a NATIVE Token-Ring Driver for the DOS Workstation.
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE the IBM LAN Support Program. It is
FASTER and SMALLER than SLANSUP.com. This module has the
IPX already gen'ed in. It works with ROUTE.com if Source
Routing is REQUIRED. Its DEFAULT Transmit Buffer Size is 4096
for the 16/4 MBps Adapter Cards, 2048 for the OLD 4 MBps
cards.
<SLANSUP>.com can be configured by typing in the following parameters when
it is loaded:
IPX o,ALT/PRI,mem=xx00,node=xxxxxxxx
where:
o - REQUIRED to override SHELL.cfg.
ALT - Configure the Driver as the ALTERNATE Adapter
PRI - Configure the Driver as the PRIMARY Adapter -- DEFAULT
mem=xx00 xx00 is a HEXADECIMAL address of where Shared Ram
is located. The DEFAULT is D800 for PRIMARY, D400 for
ALTERNATE.
node=xx xx is up to an 8 byte HEXADECIMAL Number specifying the
Node Address. 4000h will be PREFIXED to this number to
to form a 6 byte NODE Address: 4000 xxxx xxxx.
<STOKEN>.com can be configured by typing in the following parameters when
it is loaded:
IPX o,ALT/PRI,mem=xx00,node=xxxxxxxx,slot=n,tbz=nnnn
where:
o - REQUIRED to override SHELL.cfg.
ALT - Configure the Driver as the ALTERNATE Adapter
PRI - Configure the Driver as the PRIMARY Adapter -- DEFAULT
mem=xx00 xx00 is a HEXADECIMAL address of where Shared Ram
is located. The DEFAULT is D800 for PRIMARY, D400 for
ALTERNATE.
node=xx xx is up to an 8 byte HEXADECIMAL Number specifying the
Node Address. 4000h will be PREFIXED to this number to
to form a 6 byte NODE Address: 4000 xxxx xxxx.
slot=n n is a DECIMAL number specifying the MICROCHANNEL slot
number where the board is located. ONLY valid if on a
MICROCHANNEL Machine.
tbz=nnnn nnnn is a DECIMAL number from 0 to 65535 specifying the
Transmit Buffer Size on the Adapter. The DEFAULT is
4096. If this number is larger than the board can
handle, the driver will ADJUST it to the LARGEST size
the board will accept.
ALL Parameters are separated by COMMAs or BLANKS, are OPTIONAL, are NOT case
sensitive, and may be entered in ANY order.
