Instructions:


The "appsrvr1.exe" is a DOS program that needs to be installed in your
"autoexec.bat" file immediately after loading the ODI driver.You may need
to edit "startnet.bat" to accomplish this.

This version no longer requires any changes to "net.cfg". If you are upgrading
from an older version of this program, please remove all references to
"pAPP" protocol name.

There are several command line variables that user can enter:

1 - /t allows user to specify a time delay between connection attempts (sec)
2 - /y number of cycle counts before timeout
3 - /m allows user to enter server MAC address (in decimal)
4 - /p allows user to specify a UDP port number
5 - /b specify a UDP port for broadcast message
6 - /f suppresses call to host for connection
7 - /d disconnect call
8 - /c specify a connection profile
8 - /? display help screen

If not specified, the program uses the following default values:

1) Time delay between connection attempts = 20 seconds
2) number of cycles is set to 3 (ie. 3 times 20 seconds)
3) App Server PC MAC address = none (zeros)
4) UPD port to communicate to = 7001
5) Broadcast UDP port is the same as communication UDP port
6) appsrvr1 will force a connection upon execution
7) normally appsrvr1 will attempt to connect unless dictated by this flag
8) no default connection profile

Usage example:

appsrvr1
  this will use all default values discussed above.

appsrvr1 /t20 /p7005
  this will assign 20 seconds to time delay and use port 7005 for comm.

appsrvr1 /m00805110C7A44 /p7523 /t65 /b7112 /f
  this will assign "00805110C7A44" as the source MAC address and will use
  UDP port 7523 for normal communication and, it will delay 65 seconds in
  between challenge messages, it will use port 7112 when sending broadcast
  message (call), and finally, it will suppress the initial call to connect.


Since connection profile is a requirement, appsrvr1 will prompt the user to
enter one if none is specified on the command line.
