Hayes LANstep Driver v2.0
For Ethernet LAN Adapters
INSTALLATION GUIDE

This installation guide describes how to:
o Use EZStart to copy the Hayes LANstep driver files version 2.0
from the SuperDisk to your PC.
o Prepare your PC's operating system so you can attach to the
network.
COPYING THE DRIVER FILES
From the Driver Installation screen, select 'Copy Files' to copy all
the files used by this driver from the SuperDisk to the Destination
Directory recommended by EZStart, or to a different directory that
you specify.
PREPARING YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM
Hayes LANstep version 2.0 supports drivers for the following adapters:
o SMC EtherCard Elite Jumpered
o SMC EtherCard Elite Soft Configuration
o SMC EtherCard Elite Micro Channel
o SMC EtherEZ Adapter
Card Installation
To install one of these cards:
1. Start the LANstep INSTALL program.
2. When prompted, select the Ethernet media type and insert the
highest-numbered LANstep Network Driver Disk you have.
3. Choose the appropriate SMC adapter from the menu.
4. When INSTALL prompts you, enter the correct values for the
network card settings, if necessary.
LANstep automatically updates your PROTOCOL.INI, CONFIG.SYS,
and LANSTEP.INI files
To install an SMC card other than one listed above (such as one for
which LANstep does not include a driver), follow the steps above, but
choose "Other network cards" when INSTALL prompts you with a list of
network cards. Read the information screen, then press Enter to return
to the DOS prompt.
Workstation Configuration
For a workstation, follow these steps:
1. Use any text editor to include the following lines in your
CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=C:\LANSTEP\PROTMAN.SYS /I:C:\LANSTEP /E:C:\LANSTEP\PROTMAN.EXE
DEVICE=C:\LANSTEP\SMC8000.DOS
2. Modify the PROTOCOL.INI file in the \LANSTEP subdirectory
on your PC's hard disk so it resembles the following:
[PROTOCOL MANAGER]
DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$
[LANSTEP]
DRIVERNAME = LANSTEP$
INTERRUPT = 3
BINDINGS = SMC8000
[SMC8000]
DRIVERNAME = SMC8000$
IOBASE = 0x280
LANstep requires an INTERRUPT = entry in the [LANSTEP] section of
the PROTOCOL.INI file that matches the Ethernet adapter's
IRQ setting. If you change the interrupt on the adapter, remember
to change the [LANSTEP] section of the PROTOCOL.INI file. (This is
a requirement on workstations only, not on servers.)
Server Configuration
For a server, follow these steps:
1. Use any text editor to include the following lines in the
LANSTEP.INI file in the \LANSTEP subdirectory on your PC's hard
disk:
[SERVER]
PROTMAN = C:\LANSTEP\PROTMAN.OS2
NDISDRVR = C:\LANSTEP\SMC8000.OS2
2. Modify the PROTOCOL.INI file in the \LANSTEP subdirectory
on your PC's hard disk so it resembles the following:
[SMC8000]
DRIVERNAME = SMC8000$
IOBASE = 0x280
RAMADDRESS = 0xD000
IRQ = 3
