> Configuring the BitSURFR Pro for Windows 95 Dial-Up Networking
>
>
> This document will describe how to configure Windows 95 for Internet
> or remote LAN access using the Motorola BitSURFR Pro ISDN terminal
> adapter. This application is based on the TCP/IP and Dial-Up
> Networking functionality built into Windows 95. It uses PPP as a
> transmission protocol and can be configured to access the growing
> number of Internet Service Providers who utilize synchronous PPP as
> the remote dial-in connection protocol.
>
>
> INF File Installation
>
>
> Before configuring "Dial-Up Networking" Windows 95 must recognize and
> register the BitSURFR Pro modem in the "Modems" folder. This is an
> automatic process performed by Win 95 upon startup. Each Win 95 modem
> device uses a unique .inf configuration file to identify itself. Refer
> to the application note, "Installing the Motorola BitSURFR Pro ISDN
> Terminal Adapter with Windows 95" for instructions on basic
> installation. Network Protocol Installation
>
>
> Networking components must be installed in Win 95 before Dial-Up
> Networking can be used for Internet Access. These components are
> installed under the "Network" folder found in the "Control Panel".
> Insure that "Dial-Up Adapter" and "TCP/IP" are installed before
> proceeding.
>
>
> Dial-Up Networking Configuration
>
>
> Follow the steps below to configure a Dial-Up Networking interface for
> Internet or Remote LAN access.
>
>
> 1. Open the "My Computer" folder.
> 2. Open the "Dial-Up Networking" folder.
> 3. Select the "Connections" menu item and then "Make New
> Connection..."
> 4. Enter a name for the connection and choose the "Motorola BitSURFR
> Pro" device in the "Select a modem:" field.
> 5. Select the "Configure" button to set properties for the BitSURFR
> Pro modem.
> 6. Under the "General" tab select the proper COM port you are using
> and set the "Maximum speed" to be 115200.
> 7. Select the "Connection" tab. No changes are required for the
> "Connection" and "Call preferences".
> 8. Select "Port Settings" and insure that the FIFO buffer option is
> checked and then click "OK"
> 9. Select "Advanced" and insure that "Use flow control" is checked
> and the flow control method is set for "Hardware (RTS/CTS)".
> 10. Enter the appropriate commands in the "Extra settings" field
> dependent on protocol being used. Refer to the section below for
> "Extra settings" field entries.
> 11. Select OK to accept the "Advanced Connection Settings".
> 12. Select the "Options" tab. No changes will be required unless a
> manual login procedure is required by the host device. This will
> not be required if using PPP or MLP protocols. However, if the
> BitSURFR Pro modem is required to use V.120 or AIMux protocol
> then the "Connection control" will likely have to be checked for
> "Bring up terminal window after dialing". This will allow a
> manual login after the BitSURFR Pro modem has connected using
> V.120 or AIMux. Check with the host administrator to see if
> manual login is required.
> 13. Select OK to accept the "Motorola BitSURFR Pro Properties".
> 14. Select "Next>" and enter the telephone number to be dialed.
> 15. Select "Next>" and "Finish"

> Notes:
> V.120 is an error correcting protocol used to transmit any async data
> format to a V.120 compatible device. It uses only one 56K or 64K B
> channel. Most common application is for BitSURFR-to-BitSURFR type
> calls.
>
>
> PPP is an async-to-sync conversion protocol which allows an async
> device, i.e. PC, to connect to a synchronous host, i.e. LAN router. It
> uses only one B channel.
>
>
> AIMux is an async rate adaptive protocol used to transmit any async
> data format to another AIMux compatible device. It uses two B channels
> and currently works only between two BitSURFR devices.
>
>
> MLP is an async-to-sync conversion protocol which allows an async
> device, i.e. PC, to connect to a synchronous host, i.e. LAN router. It
> uses two B channels and conforms to RFC1717.
>
>
> A new connection icon is now added to the "Dial-Up Networking" folder.
> Additional configuration may be required to insure proper protocol
> negotiation to the Internet Service Provider(SIP) or remote LAN.
> Follow the steps below for final configuration.
>
>
> 1. Highlight the file created in the "Dial-Up Networking" folder.
> 2. Select "File" and "Properties" from the menu bar.
> 3. No changes are required for the telephone number entry unless MLP
> protocol is used. When using MLP a second phone number is
> required in the "Telephone number:" field. The second number is
> the number of the second B channel to be connected and likely
> will we the same as the first number. An example of the format is
> "5551212&5551212". The minimum requirement for the second number
> is to repeat the last digit of the first number or enter the
> least significant uncommon digits. Therefore, to dial 5551212
> twice the entry can be abbreviated to be "5551212&2". To dial
> 5551234 and 5555678 then the entry would be "5551234&5678". If
> using this dial method the "Use country code and area code"
> option must be unchecked. If left checked Win 95 will not retain
> the & character in the dial string when dialing unless it is
> manually inserted before each and every dial attempt.
> 4. Select the "Server Type" button.
> 5. Configure "Server Type" options as required for your application.
> For Internet access applications the server type will be "PPP,
> Windows 95, Windows NT 3.5, Internet", all "Advanced options"
> unchecked, and "Allowed network Protocols:" set for TCP/IP only.
> 6. Select the "TCP/IP Settings". Use default settings unless
> otherwise instructed by your service provider.
> 7. Select "OK".
> 8. Select "OK" at the "Server Types" window.
> 9. Select "OK" at the main configuration window.
>
>
> Configuration for Dial-Up Networking is now complete.
>
>
> Dialing
>
>
> From the "Dial-Up Networking" folder double-click the icon created for
> Internet or remote LAN access. The "Connect To" window will appear.
> Enter the assigned user name and password for you account and then
> select "Connect". The BitSURFR Pro modem will dial and connect to the
> host device and start PPP or MLP negotiation automatically.
