  The AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver

The AVM NDIS WAN CAPI driver makes it possible to use Remote Access Services (RAS) via ISDN.

NDIS is an abbreviation for Network Device Interface Specification and defines a standard for binding network adapters (hardware) to network protocols (software). NDIS WAN is a Microsoft extension of this standard for Wide Area Networking (WAN) The NDIS WAN CAPI driver thus allows the ISDN-Controller to be used as a WAN adapter, addressed via the COMMON-ISDN-API (CAPI) 2.0 applications interface.

This help file gives you an overview of documentation for the NDIS WAN CAPI driver. The following documents are available:

-	The AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver On-line Manual (Version 2.0).

1	General Remarks

The NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98 from AVM provides you with the capability for dial-up networking (RAS) via ISDN. This package is available free of charge to all AVM customers. The NDIS WAN CAPI driver from the AVM "Middleware" range is based upon the standardized CAPI 2.0 application interface, and can be used with all AVM ISDN-Controllers.

Please note that this architecture only allows you to set up ISDN connections based on the Point -to-Point-Protocol (PPP) via  ISDN and HDLC (dial-up networking), in contrast to the AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver (UNIMODEM/VCOMM driver). Hyperterminal, CompuServe client software and similar packages cannot be addressed with the NDIS WAN CAPI driver. For these packages, please use the ISDN CAPI Port Driver from AVM. AVM customers can download the AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver free of charge from the AVM Data Call Center.

For further information about remote access products (e.g. NetWAYS/ISDN), which make full use of ISDN functionality and allow high-performance and economical operation, please contact AVM.

The driver specification is described in detail here. Please also note the general remarks on "Remote Access Services (RAS)" in the Windows 98 documentation.

After completing the installation (Section 2), we recommend a test connection to the AVM Data Call Center (Section 2.5) to verify correct set-up of the driver.

2	Installation

2.1	Before you begin

Important:	Please follow exactly the installation sequence described here!

If you have already installed the Beta-1 version of the AVM NDIS WAN Miniport Driver, uninstall this driver first.

Important:	An update is not possible !

To uninstall, proceed as follows:

-	Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network > highlight entry "AVM NDIS WAN Miniport Driver" > Remove.

-	Restart your computer.

2.2	Installing the AVM ISDN-Controller

Install the AVM ISDN-Controller according to the procedure described in the manual. Always use the latest CAPI 2.0 Driver, which is obtainable free of charge from the AVM Data Call Center (see Section 8).

2.3	Installing Windows 98 Dial-Up Networking

If Dial-Up Networking has not yet been installed, you need to do that now:

-	Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > "Windows Setup" tab > Communications> Details.. > Dial-Up Networking > OK.

2.4	Installing the NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98

You can now install the NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98

-	Open the Windows 98 Control Panel and click on the Network icon.

-	Select Add > Adapter > Add. In the following window click on the Have disk button. In the window "Install from Disk:", enter the path to the directory containing the NDIS WAN CAPI Driver files. Confirm this with OK.

-	A driver with the name "AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver" will be displayed. Confirm this with OK.

-	The required files will be copied to your hard disk. At least the following components should then be visible in the Network window:

Network Adapter: AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver

Network Adapter: Dial-Up Adapter

Protocol: NDISWAN -> AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver

-	Add any network protocols, such as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX or NetBIOS, as required (you will need TCP/IP for the test connection described below). Check the bindings of the protocol to the dial-up adapter. Remove any unnecessary bindings. Changes can also be carried out later.

-	To continue the installation, confirm the settings in the Network window by clicking OK. The NDIS WAN CAPI driver's "ISDN Configuration Wizard" will be started automatically, to assist you during further configuration of the driver. Click the Next button.

-	In the next window, select the setting "Switch Protocol: Automatic", since the D channel protocol has already set during installation of the ISDN-Controller driver software, and does not have to be entered again here. Confirm this with Next.

-	If required, you can assign Multiple Subscriber Numbers (MSNs) for both "Modem Entries" of the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver, in the following window (Line "Phone Number"). Confirm this with Next.

MSNs must be assigned if the ISDN-Controller is to be used in RAS Server mode, and other CAPI applications with the service indicator "Data" (DATA64K Service) are present on your PC (such as FRITZ!data). Only in this way can incoming calls be unambiguously assigned. The Multiple Subscriber Number applies to both incoming and outgoing calls - a separate configuration is not possible. If you do need a separate MSN for outgoing calls, then you should use the AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver. Subsequent changes to the MSN will only become active after restarting Windows.

-	At the conclusion of the ISDN Configuration Wizard, you will be asked to insert the Windows 98 CD-ROM.  If a version conflict is reported for the file " NDIS.VXD" (Windows NDIS 3.1 Wrapper) when copying files from the CD-ROM, then please answer the question "Do you want to keep this file?" with "Yes".

-	Installation is then complete. After restarting the computer, you are free to use the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98.

2.5	Testing the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver installation.

After completing the installation you can use a test connection to confirm that

-	the AVM ISDN-Controller is correctly installed in your system,

-	the CAPI 2.0 application interface is initialized,

-	the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98 is available in the system,

-	Windows 98 Dial-Up Networking is available and

-	the network protocol TCP/IP is correctly installed.

You should carry out the test connection described below, to check correct installation of the individual components.

The connection to the AVM Intranet-Server described below simulates a PPP connection with the HDLC protocol using the Dial-Up Networking. This protocol combination is also used by a multitude of Internet Service Providers (ISPs). After successfully completing the test connection, this configuration can in principle also be used to connect to an Internet Service Provider simply by modifying the ISDN number, user name and password.

2.5.1	Preparations for the Test Connection

The following components must be installed in series:

-	AVM ISDN-Controller with current driver software (CAPI 2.0),

-	Windows 98 Dial-Up Networking,

(Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > "Windows Setup" tab > Communications > Dial-Up Networking)

-	AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver,

-	the TCP/IP network protocol.

(Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network > Add...> Protocol > Microsoft > TCP/IP).

Make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is bound only to the dial-up adapter. Multiple bindings to local network adapters (such as NE2000 or the like) may lead to malfunctions. Also verify in the TCP/IP Settings that the option  "Obtain an IP address automatically" is checked (Control Panel > Network > TCP/IP > Properties > "IP Address" tab).

2.5.2	Configuring the Test Connection

To configure the test connection, proceed as follows:

-	In the Dial-Up Networking window, double-click on "Make new connection" and select the modem "AVM NDIS WAN Line 1" or "AVM NDIS WAN Line 2" from the list. Confirm with Next.

-	Under "Telephone number", enter the telephone number of the AVM Intranet Server, +49 30 39 98 43 20. If your ISDN line is a PBX extension, enter the outside line access as well (generally "0"). Click on Finish to complete the connection set-up.

-	In the Dial-Up Networking window, click on the newly created connection with the right mouse button and select "Properties". Switch off the option "Use country code and area code", to avoid the use of any unnecessary dialing prefixes. On the Server Types tab, select the entry "PPP: Windows 95, Windows NT 3.5, Internet" from the drop-down list.

-	Under "Advanced options:" clear the options "Log on to network" and "Enable software compression" and select only "TCP/IP" as the allowed network protocol. Click on TCP/IP Settings... In the "TCP/IP Settings" window, simply leave the default options active ("Server assigned IP address" and "Server assigned name server addresses") Click OK to close the dialog.

2.5.3	Activating the Test Connection

Establish the connection to the AVM Intranet Server by double-clicking on it (you do not need to enter a user name or password). After the connection has been established, start a 32-bit web browser (e.g. Netscape) and enter the location " http://www.avm.de". The AVM home page will appear. Connecting to other Internet sites is not possible.

3	Connections to Internet Service Providers (ISPs)

There are no binding standards for ISDN dial-up access to the Internet via ISPs. PPP/SLIP protocol variants, fixed or dynamically assigned IP addresses, static or dynamic DNSs and various different authentication procedures are all possible. Further information on this complex subject is contained in two documents available via the Internet (www.avm.de):

"ISDN and Internet, or PPP in Practice" (File: ppp_prak.doc) and "The Digital Road to the Internet, or the Truth about PPP" (File: ppp_true.doc). Both documents can be found in the Papers section of the AVM Internet pages.

For TCP/IP connections with the AVM NDIS WAN driver, you must use 32-bit client software (e.g. web browsers, FTP clients), and not 16-bit software for Windows 3.x. Otherwise, no IP connection can be established with the Windows 98 32-bit TCP/IP protocol stack.

3.1	ISDN B Channel Protocols and PPP Variants

Many providers use HDLC or the X.75 protocol on the ISDN B channel. Two protocol variants are used for PPP connections - "PPP over ISDN", based on RFC 1618 and also known as synchronous PPP, and "PPP Modem style", based on RFC 1162 and also known as asynchronous PPP.

Tip:	Your Internet Service Provider can tell you which protocol combinations and authentication procedures you need for ISDN access.

Incorrect protocol settings will result in either immediate termination of the connection, or failure to establish a connection at all (error message: "The computer you are dialing in to is not answering").

In contrast to the AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver, the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver works exclusively with the following protocol combinations:

-	ISDN B2 protocol: 	HDLC Transparent

-	PPP variant: 	"PPP over ISDN" corresponding to RFC 1618 (synchronous PPP)

These settings are fixed according to the Microsoft NDIS specification, and cannot be modified by the user. Should you require other protocols or PPP variants, we recommend the AVM ISDN CAPI Port Driver.

4	Connecting PCs using the Remote Access Service (RAS)

This section provides information on connecting your Windows 98 PC with another PC (Windows 98 or Windows NT), for the purpose of accessing remote data. For assistance in configuration of the RAS, please refer to the Windows 98 documentation or on-line help.

In this section "Server" refers to the PC waiting to receive a call, while the "Client" is the PC setting up the ISDN connection. Configuration of the RAS differs between Windows 98 and Windows NT. Windows NT 3.51/4.0 allows you to operate the RAS in server mode, using the appropriate NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows NT. This driver can be downloaded free of charge from the AVM Data Call Center.

4.1	Remote Access Service (RAS) with Windows 98

To use RAS, you first need the following components:

-	AVM ISDN-Controller with current driver software (CAPI 2.0),

-	AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for Windows 98

-	Dial-Up Networking (possibly with the Dial-Up Server module)

-	Network protocol (e.g. NetBEUI) with suitable client software and bound to the dial-up adapter

Make sure that all these components are installed, and find out the options for configuring the client software. Windows 98 only allows the existence of one dial-up networking connection simultaneously. In the following configuration example, the NetBEUI protocol from Microsoft is used to map a hard drive belonging to a remote computer (the server) onto the client computer, enabling the remote drive to be addressed across ISDN as if it were a local hard drive.

4.1.1	RAS Configuration Example (Local site - Windows 98 computer; Remote site - Windows 98 computer; AVM ISDN-Controllers used)

Preparations (Client and Server)

1.	Install the Dial-Up Server (server only)

For a Windows 98 computer to operate as an RAS server, the file "RNASERV.DLL must exist in the \Windows\System directory. This file is usually installed with the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver, but can also be installed from the Windows 98 Plus Pack. If this DLL is present, then the entry "Dial-Up Server" will appear in the "Connections" menu of the Dial-Up Networking window.

2.	Install the NetBEUI protocol

Control Panel > Network > Add... > Protocol > Add... > Manufacturer: "Microsoft" > NetBEUI

3.	Check the protocol binding

Control Panel > Network > highlight Dial-Up Adapter > Properties > "Bindings" tab > NetBEUI must be active

4. 	Install the client

Control Panel > Network > Add... > Client > Add... > Manufacturer: "Microsoft" > Client for Microsoft Networks

5.	Install File and Printer Sharing (server only)

Control Panel > Network > Add... > Service > Add... > Manufacturer: highlight "Microsoft" > File and printer sharing for Microsoft Networks

Configuring the Windows 98 client

1.	Establish a new Dial-Up connection

My Computer > Dial-Up Networking > Make new connection > Input connection name > Select modem "AVM NDIS WAN Line 1 or 2" > Continue > Input phone number (taking account of prefixes for PBX extensions) > Continue > Finish

2.	Configure the Dial-Up connection

Highlight the newly created Dial-Up connection > click the right mouse button and select "Properties" > De-select the option "Use country codes and area codes" > Server Type... > "Type of Dial-Up Server: PPP: Windows 98, Windows NT 3.5, Internet" > Further Options: activate "Log on to network" and "Enable software compression" options > select "NetBEUI" as the allowed network protocol > OK > OK

3.	Activate the Dial-Up connection

Check the phone number and double-click on the newly created connection in the Dial-Up Networking window.

4.	Map the drive belonging the remote computer

Start Explorer > Menu "Tools" > "Map Network Drive..." > select an unallocated drive letter > input the path with the following format: "\\Computer name\shared server directory" > OK

Important:	Pay close attention to the exact input notation!

For example: \\SERVER\TEST

Configuring the Windows 98 server

1.	Define the computer name

Control Panel > Network > Identification > Computer name

Example: SERVER

2.	Activate file and print sharing

Control Panel > Network > File and Print Sharing... > "I want to be able to give others access to my files"

3.	Share a directory

Start Explorer > select directory to be shared , e.g. "TEST" > right mouse button > Sharing > highlight "Shared as:" > input shared name, e.g. "TEST" > Access type: "Full" > OK

4.	Activate the server

My Computer > Dial-Up Networking > Connections > Dial-Up Server... > select "AVM NDIS WAN Line 1 or 2" > activate "Allow call access".

4.2	Remote Access Service (RAS) with Windows NT

To use RAS with Windows NT, you must first install the "NDIS WAN CAPI Driver for ISDN/CAPI 2.0" under Windows NT. This driver can be used with Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0. Installation of the driver is fully described in the accompanying documentation. Carrying out the test connection described there is strongly recommended. You can then set up connections to a Windows 98 computer as an RAS remote site (server) or to the AVM Data Call Center (ADC). The Windows 98 server can use the modem "AVM NDIS WAN Line 1 or 2" as the Dial-Up Server. Please make certain that

-	the same network protocols are installed on both computers and configured for RAS connections

-	the necessary rights have been configured (RAS dial-in access, access rights for resources, etc.)

Please read the required steps in the Windows NT documentation.

If you are using third-party products as RAS servers, please find out the required configuration for the PPP protocols being used (synchronous or asynchronous), and for the ISDN B channel protocols.

5	Multi-link PPP connections

The functionality of Windows 98 Dial-Up Networking is considerably extended by installing the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI Driver. This allows you to set up so-called "Multi-link PPP connections", in which both ISDN B channels are used to connect to the one call destination. This effectively doubles the available transmission capacity. Before establishing a multi-link PPP connection, please note the following points :

-	Charges will be made for both ISDN B channels.

-	The remote site, e.g. your Internet Service Provider (ISP) must support this operating mode.

-	RAS connections (see Section 4) can also be used with multi-link PPP. This is done by configuring the second "modem", AVM NDIS WAN Line 2, on the RAS server side for answering incoming calls.

To establish a multi-link PPP connection please proceed as follows:

a)	Set up a new connection in the Dial-Up Networking window

b)	Click once with the right mouse button on the connection, and select "Properties".

c)	Click on the button Settings in the field "Set additional devices:"

d)	Activate the option "Use additional devices" and then click on the Add... button

e)	In "Device Name" select the unused modem, i.e. "AVM NDIS WAN Line 2". In the field "Phone number" enter the same number as used already for the connection set up in a).

f)	Click OK to close the dialog.

If you now activate this dial-up connection, the system will automatically attempt to connect to the destination ISDN number using both ISDN B channels. If only one ISDN B channel can be used, for example if your ISP doesn't support multi-link PPP, there will be no response message to warn you. You can see how many B channels have actually been connected by double-clicking on the Dial-Up icon in the Windows 98 task bar. By using the Details>> button you can also manually connect and disconnect the second B channel as required. Using this technique allows you to double the transmission capacity when needed for such tasks as downloading large files from the Internet, and to reduce it again afterwards to avoid excessive charges.

The AVM software "NetWAYS/ISDN 3.0" offers you the option to automatically switch the second B channel on and off depending on the amount of data being transmitted. This is not possible with Dial-Up Networking.

9	Possible errors and corrections

Error condition: RAS (Dial-Up) Error "Connection has gone down":

Possible cause: This common error message can have many causes,
e.g. remote terminal occupied, cabling faulty, incorrect D channel protocol, no CAPI available (ISDN-Controller not loaded), B channel otherwise in use, etc.

Solution: Check the following:

-	whether another CAPI application (e.g. FRITZ!data) has access to the ISDN-Controller and the ISDN. If not, refer to the trouble-shooting section in the ISDN-Controller manual.

-	whether the AVM Data Call Center can actually be contacted.

Error condition: CAPI applications with the service indicator "Data" (DATA64K Service) that have to answer incoming calls (e.g. FRITZ!data in server mode) are not functioning parallel to the AVM NDIS WAN CAPI driver in RAS server mode.

Possible cause: Both the CAPI application and the RAS (NDIS WAN CAPI driver) are trying to accept the same call.

Solution: Define different multiple subscriber numbers (MSNs) for each application, so that incoming calls can be clearly differentiated.

Error condition: Unable to establish PPP connection

Possible cause: The Windows 98 ISDN component uses the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over ISDN, as specified in RFC 1618. This protocol is also referred to as synchronous PPP, and is a standard in ISDN internetworking.

Solution: The remote site, i.e. your Internet Service Provider must support this standard. See also the description of the Driver architecture.

Error condition: Multi-link PPP connections not possible.

Possible causes: Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) does not support multi-link PPP connections, or you have not configured the RAS remote site with a second modem entry for incoming calls.

Solution: Ask your ISP whether multi-link connections are supported, and whether they are cleared for your account. On the RAS remote site, configure a second ISDN B channel for incoming calls.

Error condition: Multi-link PPP connections to an RAS server are extremely slow.

Possible cause: You are using the AVM ISDN CAPI Port driver on the one side, and the AVM NDIS WAN driver on the other side of the RAS connection.

Solution: Use the same driver on both sides of the connection, i.e. either the AVM ISDN CAPI port driver or the AVM NDIS WAN driver. Avoid mixed operation of both drivers.

Error condition: The modem entries "AVM NDIS WAN Line 1 or 2" are not being displayed in the Dial-Up Network, or a message is displayed upon starting the Dial-Up Networking requesting you to install a modem.

Possible cause: You have not followed the installation sequence exactly (see Section 2).

Solution: Remove all components already installed (Dial-Up Networking, AVM NDIS WAN CAPI driver) and begin the installation again with Dial-Up Networking (see Section 2.3)
