5.The ATM LAN Bridge Module Configuration Utility will be automatically added to the program manager.

6.The setup program will notify you when the installation is complete.

1.3TCP/IP SLIP Connection Setup

In order to communicate with the ATM LAN Bridge Module hardware, the Configuration Utility uses TCP/IP via the winsock.dll. The configurator has been thoroughly tested with the IBM versions of TCP/IP (DOS and OS/2). However it has been demonstrated to work with the Chameleon TCP/IP protocol stack from NetManage

and Win95 from Microsoft.

**** IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING - UART TYPE****

******************************************************************

>>>NOTE: It is HIGHLY recommended that you use a workstation that has a Type 2 UART to ensure reliable transfer of data between the workstation and the ATM LAN Bridge Module.

If you are not sure what type of UART your machine has

SLIP will display the UART type on bringup. When SLIP
