NDIS Systems with Multiple Adapters

If you are installing more than one 3C619C adapter, the
PROTOCOL.INI file must be modified to bind the driver to each
adapter. Parameters must be added to the file to distinguish
each adapter attached to the same driver. These parameters
with their corresponding values are shown in the table below.

For an ISA PC with two 3C619C adapters configured in 3Com
mode, you must add the following lines to the CONFIG.SYS file:

DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS/I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\TLNK3.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\TLNK3.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\.DOS

Sample PROTOCOL.INI File

Below is a sample PROTOCOL.INI file for an ISA PC with two
3C619C adapters configured in 3Com mode:

[PROTMAN]
DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

[NETBEUI_XIF]
DRIVERNAME = NETBEUI$
BINDINGS = “TLNK3_NIF”, “TLNK3_NIF2”

[TLNK3_NIF]

; PROTOCOL.INI section for the 3Com
TokenLink III Adapter

DRIVERNAME = TLNK3$
IOBASE = 0x300

[TLNK3_NIF2]

; PROTOCOL.INI section for the 3Com
TokenLink III Adapter

DRIVERNAME = TLNK32$
IOBASE = 0x340
