They are used with 3Com 3+Open, Microsoft OS/2 LAN Manager OEM
distribution, Release 1.x or 2.x,  and	other  compatible  OEM
versions of LAN Manager.  The drivers named ETHPOCK conform to
the Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) defined by
Microsoft/3Com.

Included in MSLANMAN.DOS subdirectory are thefollowing files:

    \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\ACCTON\ACCEP\
    ETHPOCK.DOS 	      The DOS NDIS MAC driver
    PROTOCOL.INI	      A sample section of PROTOCOL.INI file

    \MSLANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\NIF\
    ACCEP.NIF		      Network Information File


INITIAL INSTALLATION


1) Install the adapter.  Proper  installation  can be  verified
   by running the diagnostic program  under DOS.  Note that the
   diagnostic program will not run properly from the OS/2
   compatibility box.

2) Use SETUP utility provided by LAN Manager to inatall the
   ACCTON'S NDIS driver . Choose  the "Import Network drivers"
   option and insert THIS DRIVER DISKETTE to  diskette drive and then
   you can configure your system to ACCTON'S driver ETHPOCK.DOS

3) Modify the PROTOCOL.INI  file if you are not using the default
   setting.

4) Modify the CONFIG.SYS file to add EPP enabler as device driver
   such as:

      DEVICE=EN-EPP.EXE

   It is important that EN-EPP must add to CONFIG.SYS before other
   network driver.


ADDITIONAL PARAMETERS IN THE PROTOCOL.INI FILE FOR THE
ACCTON ETHERPOCKET LAN MANAGER DRIVER CONFIGURATION.


  Keyword		Parameter

UNI-DIRECTION	Adding this keyword in PROTOCOL.INI file will force
		the pocket driver to run under UNI-Direction mode.
		Unless necessary, don't use this function.  Accton
		driver can detect the printer port operation mode
		automatically.

BI-DIRECTION	Adding this keyword in PROTOCOL.INI file will force
		the pocket driver to run under BI-Direction mode.
		Unless necessary, don't use this function.  Accton
		driver can detect the printer port operation mode
		automatically. If your PC's printer port only support
		uni-dirction mode (Slow mode), you can't add this
		keyword, otherwise it can't work fine.


EPP		Adding this keyword in PROTOCOL.INI file will force
		the pocket driver to run under EPP mode (Enhance
		Printer Port ). Unless necessary, don't use this
		function.  Accton driver can detect the printer port
		operation mode automatically. If your PC's printer port
		only support SPP mode (Standard Printer Port) or you didn't
		enable the EPP circkit, you can't add this keyword, otherwise
		it can't work fine.


IRQ		5, 7  Default 7
		Interrupt number of this printer port.
		It is not necessary to set this parameter, because
		the driver can detect this number automatically.


LPT		1 .. 4	default 4
		The printer port number that you used.
		It is not necessary to set this parameter, because
		the driver can detect this number automatically.

MaxMultiCast	1 .. 1000  Default 10
		Maximum  number of MultiCast  Addresses.  This
		configures  the  size of the MultiCast Address
		Table.


MaxRequests	6 .. 64  Default 8
		Maximum number of outstanding GeneralRequests.
		This configures the size of the GeneralRequest
		Queue.


MaxTransmits	6 .. 64  Default 12
		Maximum  number  of outstanding  TransmitChain
		commands.  This  configures  the  size	of the
		TransmitChain Request Queue.


MaxReceives	6 .. 96  Default 12
		Maximum  number  of  outstanding  ReceiveChain
		commands.   This  configures  the  size of the
		ReceiveChain Request Queue.


ReceiveBuffers	6 .. 96  Default 12
		Configures  the number of the  Receive buffers
		in the Receive Buffer Pool.


TransmitBufSize 128 .. 1514  Default 1514
		Configures the	size (in bytes) of  buffers in
		the Transmit Buffer Pool.


ReceiveBufSize	128 .. 1536  Default 256
		Configures the	size  (in bytes) of buffers in
		the Receive Buffer Pool.


******

Note 1:  It is not a good  recommendation  for the  EtherPocket
	 OS/2 LAN Manager Driver to be used as a server driver.

Note 2:  Values for the preceding parameters are seldom changed
	 by the user.  Most of the time, the default values are
	 used.
