-f Forwarding traffic scenario.
This option must be followed by two connection names. The tuning in this case is code-
pendent.
This option automatically sets:
SendCompletionMethod = 1
RecvCompletionMethod = 0
*ReceiveBuffers = 4096
UseRSSForRawIP = 0
UseRSSForUDP = 0
Additionally, this option chooses the best processors to assign to:
DefaultRecvRingProcessor
TxInterruptProcessor
TxForwardingProcessor
In Operating Systems support NDIS6.2:
RssBaseProcNumber
MaxRssProcessors
In Operating Systems support NDIS6.3:
NumRSSQueues
RssMaxProcNumber
-m Manual configuration
This option must be followed by one connection name.
This option assigns the provided base and number of CPUs to:
*RssBaseProcNumber
*MaxRssProcessors
Additionally, this option assigns the following with processors inside the range:
DefaultRecvRingProcessor
TxInterruptProcessor
-r Restore default settings.
This option can be followed by one or two connection names.
This option automatically sets the driver registry values back to their default values:

RecvCompletionMethod = 2
*ReceiveBuffers = 1024
UseRSSForRawIP = 1
DefaultRecvRingProcessor = -1
TxInterruptProcessor = -1
TxForwardingProcessor = -1
UseRSSForUDP = 1
In Operating Systems support NDIS6.2:
MaxRssProcessors = 8
In Operating Systems support NDIS6.3:
