NDIS Systems with Multiple Adapters
If you are installing more than one 3C619C adapter, the 
PROTOCOL.INI file must be modified to bind the driver to each 
adapter. Parameters must be added to the file to distinguish 
each adapter attached to the same driver.  These parameters 
with their corresponding values are shown in the table below. 
For an ISA PC with two 3C619C adapters configured in 3Com 
mode, you must add the following lines to the CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS/I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\TLNK3.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\TLNK3.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\<PROTOCOLDRIVER>.DOS
Sample PROTOCOL.INI File
Below is a sample PROTOCOL.INI file for an ISA PC with two 
3C619C adapters configured in 3Com mode:
[PROTMAN]
   DRIVERNAME  =  PROTMAN$
[NETBEUI_XIF]
   DRIVERNAME  =  NETBEUI$
   BINDINGS  =  “TLNK3_NIF”,  “TLNK3_NIF2”
[TLNK3_NIF]
; PROTOCOL.INI section for the 3Com
TokenLink III Adapter
   DRIVERNAME  =  TLNK3$
   IOBASE  =  0x300
[TLNK3_NIF2]
; PROTOCOL.INI section for the 3Com
TokenLink III Adapter
   DRIVERNAME  =  TLNK32$
   IOBASE  =  0x340
