## 1 Overview

    The driver yuknd.dos is the NDIS2 driver for the Microsoft Network Client
    for DOS for the Marvell Yukon Ethernet Controller.

        OEMSETUP.INF		installation skript
        PROTOCOL.INI		SAMPLE configuration file

        Microsoft Network Client 3.0 for MS-DOS

## 3 Installation

    When installing the Microsoft Network Client for DOS follow these steps
    to install yuknd.dos:

    1.  Start the installation of the Microsoft Network Client.
    2.  When you are prompted to select a network adapter, select
        "Network adapter not shown on list below ...".
    3.  Enter the path where the files yuknd.dos and
        oemsetup.inf are located.
    4.  Select "Marvell Yukon Ethernet Controller".
    5.  Answer the questions in the following dialogs to best fit your needs.
    6.  When prompted if the listed options are correct, you should select
        "Change Network Configuration".
    7.  Add the protocols that are needed for your network and configure them
        to best fit your needs.
    9.  Return from the dialog and confirm that the listed options are
        correct.
    10. Finish the installation of the Microsoft Network Client.
    11. If you have more than one network adapter you might want to change
        the bus number and device number in the protocol.ini as described
        in the next section.

## 4 Driver Parameters

    After the installation of the driver, the file protocol.ini in your
    Microsoft Network Client installation directory contains the following
    lines:

    [MRVL$yuknd]
        DriverName = yuknd$

    When you have more than one adapter supported by the driver in your system
    you might want to specify which adapter should be used. There are two ways
    to specify the adapter.

    Bus and device number (optional)

        BUSNUM = <busnum>
        DEVNUM = <devnum>

        With these parameters you can specify the network adapter the
        driver should bind on.
        The bus and device numbers are assigned by the BIOS at boot time.

    Connection type (optional)

        CONTYPE = <contype>

        This parameter can be used to force link speed and duplex mode.
        Using other values than AUTO turns off auto-negotiation and is not
        recommended.
        Possible values are:

        AUTO
        _100FD
        _100HD
        _10FD
        _10HD

    Check link mode (optional)

        CHECKLINK = 1

        When this parameter has been specified the driver uses the first
        supported adapter in the system with a valid link. This parameter
        will be ignored when BUSNUM and DEVNUM are used.

    Number of receive and transmit buffers (optional)

        MAXRECEIVES
        MAXTRANSMITS

        Possible values: 1..4, but the sum of receive and transmit buffers
        cannot be greater than 5.

        These parameters specify how many transmit and receive buffers the
        driver shall use. Using more buffers might improve the performance
        but the driver will consume more memory.

    Adjust internal behavior (optional)

        FIX = <bitmask>

        A bitmask to change some internal behavior of the driver. May be
        entered as a number (e.g. 3) or as a bitstring (e.g. "011").

        - Bit 0 ("FIX=1") avoids crashes caused by a stack overflow
          problem (observed only with MtTool 3.0). Use only if you
          experience crashes or system stops.

        - Bit 1 ("FIX=2") will let the driver queue packets internally.
          MS network client 3.11 with IPX (nwlink) may otherwise stop
          working if out of send buffers.

        Bit values can be combined by simply using their sum (e.g. "FIX=3").
