Entries in the [tndis] section of the LAN Manager PROTOCOL.INI file

have the following meanings:

interrupt

Indicates the interrupt level of the network adapter. The interrupt

parameter should match the adapter’s interrupt jumper settings. The

default setting is 3.

ioaddress

Indicates the current I/O address jumper configuration for the

network adapter. If this entry does not match the adapter’s I/O switch

settings, the driver reports an error.

maxtransmits

Specifies the maximum number of outstanding transmit chain

commands. This configures the size of the transmit chain request

queue.

slot

Specifies the number of the slot in the computer where the network

adapter resides. This entry is not necessary if there is only one Tiara

10Base-T LanCard/E*AT adapter in the system. It is required if there

is more than one Tiara 10Base-T LanCard/E*AT adapter.
