NDC Instant-Link Ethernet PCMCIA Adapter (ND51XX)
Packet Driver for NCSA PC/TCP Installation
=================================================
PRE-INSTALLATION
Before installing the NOS or network applications, first run NDCONF1
to configure and diagnose the Instant-Link adapter(s). We recommend
you to select "Update CONFIG.SYS" in the "Configuration
Menu" before exiting NDCONF1.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Make sure you have the correct version of NCSA Telnet for the
PC. You need version 2.3 or later to support the packet
driver interface.
2) Install the NCSA software onto your system. Please refer to
the NCSA documentation for detailed instructions.
3) Load the NE2000 Packet Driver "NE2000PK.COM" in the \PACKET
directory of Instant-Link Setup diskette:
NE2000 Packet Driver Basic Syntax:
NE2000PK <PD_INT_NO> [IRQ] [IO_BASE]
where:
<PD_INT_NO> This specifies the software interrupt (IRQ)
where you'll load the packet driver. It must
be in the range 0x60 to 0x80.
The PC/TCP kernel, by default, is loaded at
interrupt 0x61 (so don't load the packet
driver there!)
[IRQ] This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) of
your card.
[IO_BASE] This specifies the I/O address of your card.
Following is an example to load the NE2000 packet driver using
software interrupt vector 0x60 for NE2000 compatible adapter
with IRQ=3, IO_BASE=0x300.
NE2000PK 0x60 3 0x300
4) At this point you are ready to run NCSA applications (e.g.,
'ftp', 'telnet', etc.).
