NET.CFG Options Reference
Protocol IPX Option
BIND LAN_driver_name [#number]
Usually a protocol binds to the first LAN driver it finds. This parameter
forces the protocol to bind to the LAN driver you specify.
You are informed of the board number you are binding to when the LAN
driver is loading.
NOTE: Some protocols do not support binding to multiple LAN drivers. Refer to the
protocol’s documentation for binding information.
INT64 [on | off]
Allows applications to use interrupt 64h to access IPX services.
Syntax bind LAN_driver_name [#number]
Replace LAN_driver_name with the name of the
LAN driver you want the protocol to bind to.
Replace number with the occurrence of the LAN
driver you are loading. If you are binding only
one LAN driver, you do not need to set this value.
If you want to bind multiple LAN drivers, specify
the BIND parameter multiple times, each on a
different line in the NET.CFG file.
Default None
Example To bind protocol IPXODI to your NE2000 LAN driver,
you would place the following lines in your NET.CFG file:
protocol ipx
bind ne2000
To bind protocol IPXODI to the second and third
logical LAN drivers, you would place the following
lines in your NET.CFG file:
protocol ipx
bind ne2000 #2, #3
