                for Racal-Datacom Ethernet Adapters



SECTION 1 - Overview
--------------------
This directory contains TSR programs that communicate with Racal-Datacom's 
Roll Call Network Management System. Roll Call is a Windows 3.1 application 
that allows the Network Administrator to gather SNMP statistics from 
Racal-Datacom Workstation/Packet and DOS ODI drivers. For more information
on Roll Call, contact your vendor or contact Racal-Datacom Pre-Sales Support 
at 1-800-LAN-TALK.


SECTION 2 - Contents of this directory
--------------------------------------
PDAGENT.COM  - SNMP Agent TSR that communicates with Racal-Datacom's
               workstation drivers that support the Clarkson/FTP packet 
               driver interface.

RCCONFIG.EXE - Program used to build the SNMP user descriptor file 
               (RCMGMNT.CFG) that is read by the PDAGENT.COM SNMP TSR 
               at initialization. This file contains the user's name, 
               location and contact information.

ODIAGENT.COM - SNMP Agent TSR that communicates with Racal-Datacom's
               DOS ODI datalink drivers.

NET.CFG      - Configuration file for ODI drivers and the ODIAGENT.COM
               SNMP TSR. This file contains the user's name, location and 
               contact information.


SECTION 3 - Installation for Workstation/Packet Drivers
-------------------------------------------------------
1. Copy the PDAGENT.COM and RCCONFIG.EXE files to a directory on your hard disk.
   (This is typically the directory where the network protocols and drivers are
   stored.) 

2. Execute the RCCONFIG.EXE program (to create the RCMGMNT.CFG file). 

   Specify the user's name in the NAME field. Specify a system description (for
   example, the type of PC, amount of system memory, and size of hard disk)
   in the SYSTEM DESCRIPTION field. Type the location of the PC in the 
   LOCATION field. Type the name of the person or department to contact in 
   the event of a problem in the CONTACT field. Type rollcall (all lower case)
   in the COMMUNITY field. 

   When you get to the bottom of the form, you are prompted to press Enter
   (to exit RCCONFIG) or any other key to re-edit the fields. Press the Enter
   key again to exit the program. 

   To prohibit users from modifying their SNMP configuration, delete the
   RCCONFIG.EXE program from the directory on the hard disk. (Be sure not
   to delete the new RCMGMNT.CFG file.)



3. Use a text editor to add/update the following lines in the workstation's 
   AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

        SET PKTDRV=62
        IPX
        PDAGENT
        NETX

4. Reboot the workstation to load and initialize the SNMP TSR. 


SECTION 4 - Installation for ODI Drivers
----------------------------------------
1. Copy the ODIAGENT.COM and sample NET.CFG files to a directory on your hard 
   disk.  (This is typically the directory where the network protocols and 
   drivers are stored.) 

2. Use a text editor to modify the sample NET.CFG file to reflect your SNMP 
   configuration. 

   In the PROTOCOL SNMP section, specify the user's name in the NAME field. 
   Specify a system description (for example, the type of PC, amount of system 
   memory, and size of hard disk) in the SYSTEM DESCRIPTION field. Type the 
   location of the PC in the LOCATION field. Type the name of the person or 
   department to contact in the event of a problem in the CONTACT field. Type 
   rollcall (all lower case) in the COMMUNITY field. 

   In the LINK DRIVER section, add the following lines below any 
   hardware-specific entries required for your adapter:
        Frame Ethernet_802.3
        Frame Ethernet_II
        Protocol IPX 0 Ethernet_802.3
        Protocol SNMP 814C Ethernet_II

3. Use a text editor to add/update the following lines in the workstation's 
   AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

        LSL
        <drivername>  (e.g. NI5210.COM)
        IPXODI
        ODIAGENT
        NETX

4. Reboot the workstation to load and initialize the SNMP TSR.
