9.2.4 Using MCSI as an INT14 Software Redirector
MCSI has the option to be run on a workstation as an INT14 software redirector. This allows the MultiRouter
to operate with communications software that provides a network INT14 interface.
This procedure is for users whose LAN PCs will be running a LAN “network” version of communications
software, like MultiExpress for DOS
,
with an INT14 compatible interface. These criteria should be met before
you begin this section:
• You have your MultiRouter User Name and Password assigned by the LAN System Manager or
Administrator when the MultiRouter was installed.
• The MultiRouter and the client PC are properly connected to a LAN with IPX capability and you have
access to a “network” version copy of dial-in or dial-out communications software with an MCSI
compatible interface.
Note: INT14 used in Windows is not the same as a network INT14 and does not connect to the MultiRouter.
1. Power on your client PC and log in to your LAN
2. Change to the subdirectory containing the MCSI files, i.e., C:\MCSI>.
3. Type MCSIWSN -A and press Enter. This loads MCSI and allows it to operate as an INT14 redirector. A
message similar to the following appears:
4. Type LOGON and press Enter and the following appears:
Note: If you have more than one RNS on your network and you are not listed as a user on every RNS
then you must type the following: LOGON <communications server name>\<user name> i.e., LOGON
SERVER_1\USER1.
5. Type USER1 (or your valid MultiRouter user name) and press Enter. If a password has been assigned,
the following appears. (If a password was not assigned, go to step 7.)
6. Type USER1 (or your valid MultiRouter password) and press Enter. The following appears:
