SUPPORT FOR EXCELLA DEVICE ON PC SIDE:


To support Excella device on the PC side, a template INF file provided by Microsoft was
modified to install the RNDIS drivers. There are two driver files provided by Microsoft:

rndismp.sys (export driver and is linked to usb8023.sys)
usb8023.sys (For an RNDIS USB Device)

When usb8023.sys is loaded the system automatically loads rndismp.sys.

Windows XP has built in support for RNDIS. Windows 2000 does not have RNDIS drivers.
MagTek supplies RNDIS driver for Windows 2000.
