; ; Sample NET.CFG for the ORiNOCO IEEE 802.11 16-bit (DOS) ODI driver. ; The name of this driver is: WVLAN43.COM v6.10 ; ; Date: $Date: 2001/10/26 13:41:56 $ $Revision: 1.3 $ ; Link Driver WVLAN43 ; For more information on the configuration parameters, refer to the ; documentation supplied with the Network I/F Card. ; Parameter names and values are case insensitive. In parameter values, all ; lower case characters are automatically be converted to upper case. As ; this is not desirable, e.g. for Wireless_Network_Name or if the parameter ; value contains spaces, values can be surrounded by double quotes. ; BASIC parameters ; ===== ========== ;>> Wireless_Network_Name: 0..32 printable character string. ; ; Specifies the network this station is to connect to. ; Used to be called: WaveLAN_Network_Name ; 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 LAN administrator. Wireless_Network_Name ANY ;>> 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) ; ======== ========== ;>> AP_Distance: integer in the range 1..3. ; ; Specifies the distance of the Access Points in your network. ; 1 Large distance ; 2 Medium distance ; 3 Small distance ; This information should be provided by your LAN administrator. ; AP_Distance 1 ;>> Microwave_Robustness: Y/N, default = No. ; Select Y(es) when there are microwave ovens present in the area where ; you intend to use your PC ; Microwave_Robustness N ;>> Medium_Reservation: integer in the range 0..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. ; 2347 Off (default) ; 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 2345 ;>> Node 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 LAN administrator. ; Node Address 02000000cafe ; POWERMANAGEMENT parameters (specify only when really needed) ; =============== ========== ; Note: Card Power Management requires the firmware on your card to support ; this. See also the README.TXT file. ;>> Card_Power_Management: integer in the range 0..2, default = 0. ; ; Card_Power_Management is used to control the power managemnt used by the ; station in an ESS. ; The recommanded mode is Enhanced Power Management or EPM, which is ; selected by specifying 1. 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. ; As an alternative mode, Power Management or PM can be selected by ; specifying 2. PM improves the power savings at the expenses of ; performance. ;>> Maximum_Sleep_Duration: integer in range 1-65535, default 100 ; ; Maximum_Sleep_Duration specifies the maximum time the station is ; allowed to spend consecutively in DOZE state, used to determine ; the Listen Interval of the station's Power Management scheme. ; This parameter is ignored if Card_Power_Management is not enabled. ; Maximum_Sleep_Duration 100 ;>> Receive_All_Multicasts: Y/N, default = 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. ; This parameter is ignored if Card_Power_Management is not enabled. ; 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 ORiNOCO IEEE Silver and Gold cards only. To use WEP ; within your network all Access point devices and wireless stations must be ; equipped with ORiNOCO IEEE Silver and Gold 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 ; non-encrypted data and messages encrypted with one of the listed WEP ; Encryption Key Values. ;>> Enable_Encryption: Y/N, default = No. ; If encryption is enabled while the Card does not support WEP, an error ; is reported ; Enable_Encryption Y ;>> 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. ; 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: integer in the range 1..4 ; If you enable WEP encryption, you can select one key for wireless data ; transmissions from the list of WEP Encryption Key Values. ; Valid range: 1-4 ; Default value: 1 ; Transmit_Key_ID 1 ; IBSS parameters ; ==== ========== ;>> "Create_IBSS: Y/N, default = N ; ; Create_IBSS specifies whether the station must create or connect to an IBSS. ;>> Independent_Network_Name: = 0..32 printable character string. ; Default value: Independent Network ; Independent_Network_Name specifies the network (Service Set) the station is ; to create as an IBSS, or the ESS the AP is part of. ;>> Independent_Network_Power_Management: integer in the range 0 - 100 ; This parameter is used to enable and set the associate parameter of ; Power Management in an IBSS ;>> Channel: integer in the range 1 - 14, Default value = 0 ; This parameter specifies the frequency channel of the IBSS the station is to ; create
