Configuration Reference
For 32-bit NDIS3 Driver (M32A.SYS):
LINESPEED forces operation to 10 or 100
Mbps. Valid parameters are AutoDetect, 10
Mbps, and 100 Mbps. Default keyword is
AutoDetect.
LINKDISABLE disables link integrity for non-IEEE 10BASE-T
networks such as StarLAN 10. Without this
keyword in the driver command line, the driver
defaults to link integrity ENABLED.
MEM see MEMORY.
MEMORY specifies the host PC memory location for the
Intel adapter in hexadecimal notation, when
MODE MEMORY (memory-mapped I/O) is
being used (see MODE). The memory block
occupies 4 Kbytes of host memory.
MODE set this keyword to IO to disable requests for
memory-mapped mode on systems that only
support an I/O-driven card. The MEMORY
setting provides increased performance on
computers that allow simultaneous availability of
memory and I/O resources.
NETWORKADDRESS allows user to override adapter’s unique network
node address by specifying a different node
address.
NOBURST disables burst mode reads on the PRO/100
CardBus adapter. Using this keyword will force
the adapter to initiate a bus-master request for
each read, negatively impacting performance.
NOCHECK disables verification of adapter resources. If the
driver detection and verification code is causing
problems when loading, this keyword can be
used to turn the feature off.
NODEADDRESS see NETWORKADDRESS.
NOEARLYRX disables Advanced Look-ahead Pipelining
features of the adapter. This keyword may be
used to troubleshoot systems that have
inexplicable network problems. Using this
keyword may negatively impact performance.
NOEARLYTX disables early transmit capability of the Adapter.
This keyword may be used to troubleshoot
systems that have inexplicable network
problems. Using this keyword may negatively
impact performance.
