## IBM OS/2* and LAN Requestor

Location of files: \OS2\E100B.OS2 (OS/2* driver) \OS2\E100BEO2.NIF
or
\DOS\E100B.DOS (DOS driver)
\DOS\E100BEDS.NIF (DLR and LSP installation file)
NOTE: LAN Requester needs DOS 3.3 through 5, but if you're using DOS 6.0 or higher, run SETVER.EXE prior to using the executable files found on the DOS LAN Requester disks. See your DOS manual if you need help with SETVER.EXE.

### Sample Configuration File

PROTOCOL.INI (will include):
[E100B_NIF]
DriverName = E100B$

General Installation - LAN Server and OS/2 Requester (4.0 or 3.0)

1. Run the MPTS utility with LAN Server 4.0 or OS/2 Requester 4.0 (Run the LAPS utility with LAN Server 3.0 or OS/2 Requester 3.0).

2. Click Install.

3. When prompted, insert the Configuration and Drivers disk in the drive, specify <drive>:\OS2 for driver location, and click OK.

4. When Install reads the E100BEO2.NIF, installation is complete. Click OK. The adapter driver has been copied to your system.

5. Click Configure from the MPTS window.

6. At the Configure window, make sure the LAN adapters and protocols button is on and click CONFIGURE.

7. At the LAPS Configuration window, select the Intel adapter (OS/2 driver: E100B.OS2) from the Network Adapters window.

8. Click Add in the Network Adapter window to add the Intel PCI adapter to the current configuration.

9. Select your desired protocol(s) from the Protocol window and click Add to add the protocol(s) to the current configuration.

10. Click OK when you're done and follow the prompts to exit MPTS. Your CONFIG.SYS is automatically updated.

11. Shut down and reset your system for the changes to take effect.

### General Installation under DOS (DOS LAN Services)

| NOTE: Due to a problem with the DLS installation utility, you need to complete the following steps before executing the installation of DLS:

1. On DLS Diskette 1, make a directory off the root called NDIS.

2. Copy the file E100B.DOS (from the \DOS directory of the Configuration and Drivers disk) into this new directory \DOS on DLS disk 1.

3. Run the DOS LAN Services installation program at the DOS workstation. Follow the prompts.

4. When presented with an adapter list, select Network card not shown in list below.

5. When prompted for the location of the OEMSETUP.INF file, insert the Configuration and Drivers disk in your drive and enter <drive>:\DOS as the path.

6. Select the Intel adapter from the list. Follow the prompts.

7. Enter your machine name, user name and domain name.

8. Set the options as you need; then highlight "The listed options are correct" and press <Enter>.

9. Accept the defaults on the next screen, highlight "The listed options are correct" and press <Enter>.

10. Set the Speed, Duplex mode, or Slot Device if needed. We recommend accepting the defaults. Then highlight "The listed options are correct" and press Enter.

11. You may be asked to insert DLS disks. Follow the prompts to complete the installation and restart your computer for changes to take effect.

### General Installation under DOS - LAN Support Program (LSP)

1. Run DXMAID from the LAN Support Program disk.

2. Follow the prompts and instructions.

3. When prompted, insert the Configuration and Drivers disk and enter the pathname <drive>:\DOS.

4. The default configuration is suitable for most environments. We recommend accepting the defaults.

5. After the installation is complete, restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

### General Installation under DOS - (DOS LAN Requester)

1. Run the DOS LAN Requester installation program at the DOS workstation. Follow the prompts to configure your DOS LAN Requester as you require.

2. After the installation is complete, restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

### Advanced Settings for PROTOCOL.INI

DRIVERNAME: (required) If you have a single adapter, use the syntax
in the Sample Configuration File section. If you are installing
multiple adapters, each adapter must have a unique driver name.
Additional instances of the driver would be referenced by
DRIVERNAME=E100Bx$, where "x" is a unique number 2 through 9.
SPEED: (optional; parameters are [Auto / 10 / 100]) The parameter
disables Auto-Speed Detect and causes the adapter to function at
the speed indicated. If the FORCEDUPLEX parameter is assigned to
either 1 or 2, the SPEED parameter is required because auto-speed
sensing is disabled if the duplex mode is forced. Auto-negotiate
devices cannot detect speed changes in this configuration until
the driver is reloaded. [Example: SPEED=100]
FORCEDUPLEX: Full duplex and auto-negotiate capabilities vary between
the PRO/100 TX and the PRO/100 T4 adapters.
PRO/100+ TX adapter: Supports auto-negotiate, full
and half duplex at 10 or 100 Mbps.
PRO/100B T4 adapter: Supports full and half duplex
at 10 Mbps; supports only half duplex at 100 Mbps. Auto-
negotiate is not a valid option at either speed.
This parameter disables Auto-Negotiate capability and forces the
adapter to operate in Half or Full Duplex mode. The SPEED
parameter must be specified and must be valid if the default of
Auto-negotiate is changed. Options for FORCEDUPLEX are Auto (for
auto-negotiate), 1 (for half), 2 (for full).
[Example: FORCEDUPLEX = 2]
SLOT: (required for multiple adapters) This parameter is optional if
only one adapter is present. If it is specified but is incorrect,
a message indicates that the value doesn't match the configuration
but the driver finds the adapter and loads anyway.
This parameter is required if more than one adapter is present in
either one bus or multiple PCI buses of a system. The parameter
tells the driver which adapter it controls. The SLOT number is the
encoded value of the PCI adapter's device location. To determine
the slot number, load the driver with only the DRIVERNAME
parameter specified. The driver reports all the slots that have
PCI adapter(s) installed. You can determine which card is in which
slot by using SETUP.EXE and matching the Ethernet addresses of the
adapter to the device number specified in View Configuration. (For information
on identifying Ethernet addresses of dual port adapters, see the section
Installing Multiple Adapters.)
[Example: SLOT=0x1C]
NODE: (optional) This value sets the adapter's Individual Address,
overriding the value read from the adapter EEprom. The address
must consist of 12 hexadecimal digits, enclosed in double quotes.
The value can not be all zeros. The value can not have the
Multicast bit set. So, use only the hexadecimal digits 2, 6, A, or
E as the second digit of the twelve required in the NODE ADDRESS
parameter. Use any hexadecimal digits in all other positions.
[Example: NODE ="02AA00123456"]

### Example PROTOCOL.INI

SPEED = [Auto | 10 | 100]

FORCEDUPLEX = [Auto | 1 | 2] (1 = Half; 2 = Full)

SLOT = 0x[00]

NODE = [00AA00123456]
