ipx_tune.h(SFF)


ipx_tune.h -- IPX configuration file

Description

/etc/conf/pack.d/ipx/ipx_tune.h contains parameters that configure the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) protocol.

The following parameters may be used to tune the performance of IPX/SPX:


IPX_MAX_SOCKETS
Specifies how many sockets can be used simultaneously by IPX only.

The default is 100.


SPX_MAX_SOCKETS
Specifies how many sockets can be used simultaneously by SPX only. The SPX_MAX_SOCKETS value should be greater than SPX_MAX_CONNECTIONS in the /etc/conf/pack.d/spx/spx_tune.h file, since each connection needs more than one socket.

The default is 50.


SPX_MAX_LISTENS_PER_SOCKET
Specifies the maximum number of outstanding connection requests allowed per SPX endpoint.

The default is 10.

After changing any parameters, you must rebuild the kernel and relink the system. Select Relink Kernel in the Hardware/Kernel Manager. You must then reboot your system before the changes to the kernel take effect.
