===========================================================================


(1) OVERVIEW
============

This README explains how to install the SK-UPPS driver UPPSND.DOS
for the DOS client for Microsoft's LAN Manager.
***


(2) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
=============================

To install the driver, you need the following items:

- the MS LAN Manager Setup program
- the UPPS Disk

Follow these steps:

Step 1:	Start the MS LAN Manager Setup program.

Step 2:	In the Main Menu, select "Configuration".

Step 3:	In the Configuration Menu, select "Network Drivers".

Step 4:	Select the option "Remove Config".  The entries of previously
	installed adapters in the CONFIG.SYS and PROTOCOL.INI file will
	be deleted.

Step 5:	Select "Add New Config".

Step 6:	When the message "Network Adapter Drivers" appears, select the
	option "Other Drivers".

Step 7:	Follow the instructions given in the LAN Manager Setup program.

CAUTION: If you are installing WfW, the AUTOEXEC.BAT is
	 automatically updated with the NET START command
	 in the first line.

	 The Data Link Interface Driver
		UPPSFM
	 must be loaded BEFORE the newtwork is started.
	 So DO NOT FORGET TO EXECUTE THE NEXT STEP.

Step 9:	Run the SK-UPPS installation program AFTER the installation of the
	the LAN Manager client to configure the DLI.

	  NOTE:	If you want to change the SMT parameters, you have to load
		the SMTPARA.EXE program directly after loading the
		UPPSFM driver.  SMTPARA.EXE can be found in the \DLI
		directory on the option disk.  You have to write the
		path to the file OPTIONS.SMT file as parameter in
		the parameter line of SMTPARA.EXE.  All SMT
		parameters are described in the OPTIONS.SMT file.

The file LTE.MSG offers nationalized messages if installed in the same
directory as UPPSND.DOS.  Currently, there are english (LTE001.msg) and
german versions (LTE049.MSG) available.  If LTE.MSG is not installed,
messages are displayed in english language.

For more information, refer to the chapter "Network Device Drivers" of the
Microsoft LAN Manager Installation and Configuration Guide.
***


(3)  WHERE ARE THE PARAMETERS SPECIFIED?
========================================

NOTE:	All hardware dependent parameters are set in the parameter line of
	the DLI driver (see previous section, Step 9).
	Remeber that the DLI driver has to be loaded BEFORE any other
	network driver in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

Sample section for the NDIS/DOS driver in PROTOCOL.INI:

    [UPPSND_NIF]
	    DriverName    = "UPPSND$"
	    Topology      = "FDDI"
	    Emulate       = "TokenRing"
	    ForceFeedback = "Yes"

[UPPSND_NIF] is the name of the driver section in the PROTOCOL.INI file.
Drivers that depend on this driver must refer to this name with the option:
	
	Bindings = "UPPSND_NIF"
***


(4) LIST OF DRIVER SPECIFIC PARAMETERS
======================================

The following driver specific parameters are defined:

DriverName = "UPPSND$"   : Defines the logical name of the driver.
			   This parameter is mandatory.

Topology = "FDDI"	 : Defines the topology the board is running on.

			   Possible values : "FromDLI", "Ethernet",
					     "FDDI", "TokenRing"
			   Default value   : "FromDLI"

Emulate = "TokenRing"	 : Defines the emulation that is used by the
			   driver on FDDI.

			   Possible values : "TokenRing", "Ethernet"
			   Default value   : "TokenRing"

SrcRtg = "No"		 : Defines that source routing info is to be
			   deleted when a packet is sent.

			   Possible values : "No", <other>
			   Default value   : <parameter absent>

ForceFeedback = Yes	 : Forces the driver to return a packet to the
			   DLI driver, even if the packet was processed (or
			   an application mistakenly indicates it, like
			   BANYAN VINES or WOLLONGONG TCP do in some cases).
			   Other DLI clients can now use this packet
			   correctly.

NDISRevision = "2.0.2"	 : The UPPSND NDIS driver is loaded by default
			   as an NDIS 2.0.1 driver.  This can be changed
			   to NDIS 2.0.2 with the NDISREVISION parameter.

NetAddress = <addr>[L|M] : The logical net address can be changed with the
			   NETADDRESS parameter.

			   <addr> has to be a 12 character HEX string.

			   L and M are optional parameters:

			   L means the address is in LSB mode
			   (least significant bit, standard on Ethernet).

			   M means the address is in MSB mode
			   (most significant bit, standard on Token Ring).

			   The default setting on FDDI depends on the
			   selected emulation.

			   The driver must know the topology, therefore
			   this parameter must not be used together with
			   the setting TOPOLOGY = FROMDLI.

			   At least one bit of the address must be set.
			   The multicast bit must not be set.

			   NOTE: The net address can only be set in
				 this way, if the UPPSND.DOS driver is the
			   	 first client that is registered by the DLI
				 driver.

			   Default value : address given by DLI parameter
					   -a or ROM address of the board
					   if -a parameter is omitted.
	
NetStatusMask = "mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" :
			   With NETSTATUSMASK, you can switch off the
			   Network Status Events on Token Ring and FDDI bit
			   by bit.
			   "m" has to be "0" (off) or "1" (on).
			   Use this parameter only for testing
			   (e.g. MtTool).
