; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ; File: PACKET.INI ; ; Configuration parameters file for the Wireless Packet Driver. ; The name of this driver is: WVLAN42.COM. ; ; Date: $Date: 07 Nov 2001 11:57:58 $ $Revision: 6.7 $ ; ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Wireless specific configuration parameters: ; ; For more information on the configuration parameters, refer to the ; documentation which came with the product. ; WARNING: Parameter values are case sensitive. There may be other ; platforms in your network that are case insensitive, and that ; automatically convert all lower case characters to upper case. If that ; is your situation, you should enter the Wireless_Network_Name in upper ; case. ; BASIC parameters: ; Wireless_Network_Name: 0..32 printable character string. ; This specifies the network this station is to connect to. ; When this parameter is omitted, or is specified as an empty string or as ; "ANY", the station may connect to any network it finds. ; This information should be provided by your network supervisor. ; This parameter used to be known as Wavelan_Network_Name Wireless_Network_Name = ANY ; Create_IBSS ; Valid values: Y, N ; Default value: N ; Create_IBSS specifies whether the station must create or connect ; to an IBSS. ;Create_IBSS = N ; Station_Name: 0..32 printable character string. ; Plain-text name of this station. Used for diagnostic purposes. Station_Name = John Does Notebook PC ; ADVANCED parameters (specify only when really needed): ; Distance between AP's: decimal value ; Valid values: ; 1 = Large distance, ; 2 = Medium distance, ; 3 = Small distance ; Default value: 1 ; Specifies the distance between the Access Points in your network. ; This information should be provided by your network supervisor. ;AP_Distance = 1 ; Microwave_Oven_Robustness ; Valid values: Y, N ; Default: N ; Select Y(es) when there are microwave ovens present in the area where ; you intend to use your PC ;Microwave_Oven_Robustness = N ; Medium_Reservation: decimal value. ; Valid values: 0..2437 ; Default value: 2347 ; Specifies the number of octets in a message or fragment above which a ; RTS/CTS handshake is performed to reserve the medium for the message or ; fragment transmission. Setting the value to 2347 disables this mechanism. ; Medium_Reservation is advised to be used in the following case: ; - Environments with known "hidden" stations, like a (single) cell where ; many stations are located at the periphery at maximum range from the AP. ;Medium_Reservation = 2347 ; MAC_Address: 12 Hex digits. ; Specifies a local MAC address, that will be used instead of the card’s ; own universal MAC address. If required, this information should be ; provided by your network supervisor. ;MAC_Address = 02000000cafe ; Card_Power_Management: 1 character ; Valid values: N (0), Y (1), 2 ; Default value: N (0) ; Card_Power_Management is used to enable or disable the station to use Power ; Management in an ESS. Specifying Y or 1 enables Enhanced Power Management, ; specifying 2 will enable standard power management, while specifying N or 0 ; will disable power management. ;Card_Power_Management = N ; Enhanced_Power_Save: 1 character ; Valid values: Y, N ; Default value: Y ; Enhanced_Power_Save is used to enable or disable the station to use ; Enhanced Power Management (EPM) in an ESS. EPM implies that the station ; switches between Power Save Mode and Continuous Active Mode ; dependent on the communications activity. Any frame transfer switches ; the station to Continuous Active Mode. Inactivity for 100 ms switches it ; to Power Save Mode. This improves performance during e.g. file transfer, ; but may cost a bit more power consumption. ; This parameter is ignored if Card_Power_Management is not enabled. ;Enhanced_Power_Save = Y ; Maximum_Sleep_Duration: decimal value ; Valid range: 1 - 6553 ; Default value: 100 ; Maximum_Sleep_Duration specifies the maximum time the station is allowed ; to spend consecutively in DOZE state, used to determine the Listen ; Interval on the station's Power Management scheme. ;Maximum_Sleep_Duration = 100 ; Receive_All_Multicasts: 1 character ; Valid values: Y, N ; Default value: Y ; Receive_All_Multicasts specifies whether the station must receive all ; multicast frames (with addresses specified by the protocol stack) when ; using Power Management. When this is the case, the station will have to ; wake up frequently to receive the multicast frames. This causes less ; optimal power savings. ;Receive_All_Multicasts = Y ; Encryption parameters: (specify only when really needed) ; Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption enables you to encrypt all ; data that will be transmitted via the wireless LAN medium. ; WEP is supported by Wireless cards only. To use WEP ; within your network all Accesspoint devices and wireless stations must ; be equipped with Wireless cards, that have been ; configured to use identical encryption keys. ; Up to 4 different keys to decrypt data received via the wireless interface ; can be entered. ; One of these 4 keys can be selected to encrypt wireless data that is to be ; transmitted via the wireless interface. ; ; Note: Enabling WEP encryption on wireless stations does not affect the ; ability of your computer to interpret non-encrypted data traffic: i.e. ; when you enable encryption, your computer will be able to receive both ; encrypted and non-encrypted messages with one of the listed WEP ; Encryption Key Values. ; Enable_Encryption: 1 character ; Valid values: Y, N ; Default value: N ; Enables or disables encryption. ;Enable_Encryption = N ; Key: 5/13 character string or 10/26 digit hex number (n in range 1..4) ; Depending on encryption type, keys are either 40 or 104 bits long. ; 40 bits keys are supported on the Silver and Gold cards. ; 104 bits keys are supported on the Gold card only. ; The keys can be specified in ASCII or in hex. In case the ASCII form is ; used, a key must be either 5 or 13 characters. In case of the hex form, ; a key must start with '0x' followed by 10 or 26 hex digits. Up to 4 keys ; can be specified. When multiple keys are specified, the form as well as ; the length of the keys need not be the same. If the Card does not support ; 104 bits keys, the lenght is truncated to 40 bits without warning. ;Key1 = abcde ;Key2 = 0x123456789a ;Key3 = abcdefghijkl2 ;Key4 = 0x112233445566778899AABBCCDD ; Transmit_Key_ID: decimal value ; Valid values: 1,2,3 or 4 ; Default value: 1 ; If you enable WEP encryption, you can select one key for wireless data ; transmissions from the list of WEP Encryption Key Values. ;Transmit_Key_ID = 1 ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Packet Driver specific configuration parameters: ; Driver_Class: 1 or 11, default = 1. ; Specifies the Packet Driver Class, that is reported by the driver in ; response to the driver_info() function. ; This is dependent on the need of your protocol stack. ; Class 1 uses the DIX Ethernet (Ethernet V2.0) frame format. ; Class 11 uses the IEEE 802.3 with 802.2 headers frame format. ;Driver_Class = 11 ; Novell_Flag: Yes/No, default = No. ; "Yes" specifies support for Novell's IPX Ethernet_802.3 frame format. ;Novell_Flag = No ; Packet_Interrupt: 60..70 (hex values), default = 60. ; Specifies the software interrupt for access to this driver. ;Packet_Interrupt = 60
