KwikNet System Configuration

Ethernet Device Driver Definition (continued)

Tag

Each device driver inherits the unique network tag assigned to the network interface to

which the device driver is attached. The "Network tag" field defines that tag.

Edit: Device

You must select the Edit: Device radio button to define the network's device driver

parameters.

Device Driver

To use any of the KwikNet device drivers which are available from KADAK, select its

name from the pull down list.

If you are using your own custom KwikNet device driver or one only recently available

from KADAK, you must edit the text region of the list to identify the driver. Replace the

text in the list box with the name of the device driver's Device Preparation Function

dddd_prep. The string dddd in the function name is the mnemonic used to uniquely

identify the particular device driver.

The selected device driver must match its network driver. Device drivers for Ethernet

interface devices can only be used with the Ethernet Network Driver. Device drivers for

serial (UART) interface devices can only be used with the SLIP or PPP Network Driver.

Startup Hook

This parameter provides the name of an application function which will be called when

the device driver is being opened for use. This function can modify the device's

configuration parameters before the device is actually made ready for use. If your

application does not require a startup hook for this device, leave this field empty. The

device driver startup hook is described in Appendix A.2 of the

KwikNet Device Driver

Technical Reference Manual.

Parameter #1 through #5

There are five optional parameters which can be used to configure the device driver.

Each parameter can provide a 32-bit value. Unused parameters can be left empty. The

use and meaning of each parameter is completely defined by the device driver.

If you are using one of the

KwikNet device drivers which are available from KADAK,

refer to its manual for the driver's definition of these fields. Otherwise, refer to the data

sheets which you created for your custom KwikNet device driver.
