                PROTOCOL.INI for the Proteon ProNET-4/16 p1892


The p1892 is a Token Ring Microchannel 16-bit Bus Master adapter.  
The low-level MAC code for the p1892 is contained in the PRORAPM.DWN file,
which must be downloaded into RAM on the card.

This readme explains the valid settings for parameters in the PROTOCOL.INI
file for the p1892 NDIS drivers.

PROTOCOL.INI PARAMETERS
-----------------------

drivername
	units:[n/a]
	range:[NDI89XR$] (for DOS), [NDI89XR$, NDI89XR2$, ...] (for OS/2)
        default:[NDI89XR$] (for DOS), [NDI89XR$] (for OS/2)
	requirement: a must

DRIVERNAME     Identifies the network device driver. In multiple instances
               case, DRIVERNAME is NDI89XR$ for the first token-ring driver,
               NDI89XR2$ for the second, and so on.

 
netaddress
	units:[hex]
	range:[12 hex digits]
	default:[n/a]
	requirement: optional

NETADDRESS     Overrides the network burned-in-address of the adapter.  This
               entry should only be used if there are duplicate addresses on
               the network. The network address value is a hexadecimal string
               of 12 digits enclosed in double  quotes. An example of a
               network address is:

                NETADDRESS="400001261835"


maxtransmits
        units:[integer]
	range:[3-50]
	default:[40]
	requirement: optional

MAXTRANSMITS   Specifies the maximum number of buffers that can be queued for
               transmission at one time. Used to fine tune driver performance
               or compatibility.
