; This filke contains sample commands for NET.CFG parameters for MTOKRING.NLM ; and MNETBIOS.NLM. See \DOCS\INFO\LLC-NETB.TXT for full details. ; ;PROTOCOL MTOKRING ; ;BIND <0-255> Specifies that the LLC adapter number which the ; current "Protocol MTOKRING" section refers to ; should be bound to the ODI logical board number ; specified. ; Default : Not specified ; ;T1_TICK_ONE <1-255> Overrides the timer tick length for the T1 short ; timer. ; Default : 5 ; ;T1_TICK_TWO <1-65535> Overrides the timer tick length for the T1 long ; timer. ; Default : 25 ; ;T2_TICK_ONE <1-255> Overrides the timer tick length for the T2 short ; timer. ; Default : 1 ; ;T2_TICK_TWO <1-65535> Overrides the timer tick length for the T2 long ; timer. ; Default : 10 ; ;Ti_TICK_ONE <1-255> Overrides the timer tick length for the Ti short ; timer. ; Default : 25 ; ;Ti_TICK_TWO <1-65535> Overrides the timer tick length for the Ti long ; timer. ; Default : 125 ; ;PROTOCOL MNETBIOS ; ;STATIONS <1-254> Specifies the maximum number of link stations ; which the adapter will support. One link station ; is required per remote computer with which ; sessions are opened. This is the number of link ; stations NetBIOS reserves with the LLC when it ; opens its SAP, therefore care must be taken to ; leave enough free stations for any other LLC ; applications running on the computer. ; Default : 64 ; ;MAX_FRAME_SIZE <512-65535> Limits the maximum frame size which NetBIOS will ; support. ; Default : The maximum size supported by the ; underlying ODI network driver, set ; using the "MAX BUFFER SIZE" parameter ; in the "Link Support" NET.CFG section. ; ;DATAGRAM_MAX Specifies whether the maximum sized frame can ; be used for transmitting datagrams. If FALSE, ; datagrams are limited to 512 bytes. Broadcast ; datagrams are always limited to 512 bytes. ; Setting this parameter to TRUE is not advised ; since some NetBIOS implementations which may be ; in use on the network may not support datagrams ; greater than 512 bytes. ; Default : FALSE ; ;SOURCE_ROUTING If FALSE, frames are transmitted without source ; routing information. ; Default : TRUE ; ;ADDR_NOT_REVERSED Specifies whether the node address used by the ; NCB.STATUS command and in the default name ; (NAME_NUMBER_1) should not be reversed. ; Default : FALSE ; ;RND <4-255> Specifying this parameter enables the Remote ; Name Directory (RND) and specifies the number of ; entries it should contain. The RND caches the ; location (node address and source routing ; information) of NetBIOS names as they are found ; on the network. When NetBIOS wants to transmit a ; SEND_DATAGRAM, call NAME_QUERY or STATUS_QUERY ; frame to a name which has an RND entry, the ; frame is directed to the cached node address ; rather than broadcast, which makes more ; efficient use of the network. ; Default : Not specified ; ;RDC This parameter only has meaning when the Remote ; Name Directory is enabled and specifies whether ; SEND_DATAGRAM frames should use the RND or ; should always be broadcast. ; Default : FALSE ; ;PIGGYBACK_ACK_TIMEOUT <0-100> If this parameter has a non-zero value, ; piggybacked acknowledgements are enabled and the ; value specifies the number of deciseconds to ; wait before sending an explicit acknowledgement ; to a received data frame. Piggybacked ack's ; reduce network traffic by allowing a NetBIOS ; data frame to be acknowledged by inserting an ; acknowledgment in a data frame travelling in the ; reverse direction, rather than by a DATA_ACK ; frame. Piggbacked ack's work well if the NetBIOS ; traffic follows a request-response pattern where ; a received frame is likely to be responded to ; immediately by a frame transmitted back to the ; sender. In the event that no frame is sent back, ; an explicit DATA_ACK frame is sent after the ; timeout period specified by this parameter. ; If the NetBIOS traffic does not follow a ; request-response pattern and the timeout is set ; too long, slow network performance may result. ; In this case piggybacked ack's should be ; disabled by setting this parameter to zero. ; Default : 5 ; ;TRANSMIT_COUNT <1-10> Specifies the number of times NetBIOS will retry ; sending UI request frames before assuming that ; the destination does not exist. ; Default : 6 ; ;TRANSMIT_TIMEOUT <1-20> Specifies the time (in 0.5 second units) to ; wait for a response to a UI request frame before ; retrying. ; Default : 1 ; ;DLC_T1 <0-10> Specifies the DLC T1 (retransmission) timer ; for frames transmitted on NetBIOS links. This ; determines the delay before re-transmitting a ; frame which didn't receive a response. ; ; A value from 1-5 selects the short timer tick ; and from 6-10 selects the long timer tick. ; Default : 5 ; ;DLC_T2 <0-11> Specifies the DLC T2 (acknowledgement) timer ; for frames transmitted on NetBIOS links. This ; determines the delay between receipt and ; acknowledgement of a frame when the frame has ; not reached the receive window. ; ; A value from 1-5 selects the short timer tick ; and from 6-10 selects the long timer tick. ; ; Specifying a value of 11 disables the T2 timer ; which means no acknowledgements are transmitted ; until the receive window is reached. ; Default : 2 ; ;DLC_TI <0-10> Specifies the DLC Ti (inactivity) timer for ; frames transmitted on NetBIOS links. This ; determines the period of inactivity required ; before the DLC will send a poll frame to ; check that the link is still functional. ; ; A value from 1-5 selects the short timer tick ; and from 6-10 selects the long timer tick. ; Default : 10 ; ;DLC_MAXOUT <1-127> Specifies the maximum number of I-frames that ; are transmitted on NetBIOS links before an ; LLC-level acknowledgement is required (the ; "transmit window"). ; ; Increasing DLC_MAXIN and DLC_MAXOUT can ; improve the perfomance of a link since it ; allows more data to be in transit (particularly ; useful for slow links) and reduces the number ; of LLC-level acknowledgements which are ; required. However, care must be taken to ; configure all NetBIOS stations using consistent ; values. ; Default : 2 ; ;DLC_MAXIN <1-127> Specifies the maximum number of I-frames that ; are received on NetBIOS links before an ; LLC-level acknowledgement is transmitted (the ; "receive window"). ; ; Increasing DLC_MAXIN and DLC_MAXOUT can ; improve the perfomance of a link since it ; allows more data to be in transit (particularly ; useful for slow links) and reduces the number ; of LLC-level acknowledgements which are ; required. However, care must be taken to ; configure all NetBIOS stations using consistent ; values. ; Default : 1 ; ;DLC_MAXOUT_INCR <1-255> If the LLC detects an error condition requiring ; a frame retransmission, it resets the MAXOUT ; parameter to 1. MAXOUT is then incremented by ; one each time the number of frames specified by ; this parameter are acknowledged by the remote ; station until the maximum value (DLC_MAXOUT) is ; reached. ; Default : 1 ; ;DLC_RETRY_COUNT <1-255> Specifies the number of attempts the LLC makes ; to transmit I-frames on NetBIOS links. If all ; the retries fail, all NetBIOS sessions using ; the link fail. The DLC_T1 timer gives the time ; between retransmissions. ; Default : 15 ;
