NDIS Configuration Options

Setting the Interface

The

Interface

and

Interface Mode

options are grayed on the

Module

menu when an

NDIS module is the currently selected module. The

Identify

option on the

Module

menu is grayed and does not function when the current module is an NDIS module.

Set Capture Buffer and Packet Slicing Size

The capture buffer memory size can be set in increments that double from 64K to

16MB. To set the buffer size, select the

Buffer Size

tab from the

Configuration ->

Module Settings

menu and click the radio button corresponding to the buffer size.

Since the buffer uses virtual memory, the system is not required to have more

physical memory than the buffer size (e.g., you can set the buffer size to 16MB on a

machine with 8MB of memory).
