Entries in the [omac] section of the LAN Manager PROTOCOL.INI file
have the following meanings:
adapter
Specifies which adapter will be accessed by the driver:
Value Meaning
0 Primary adapter (I/O address is A20)
1 Alternate adapter (I/O address is A24)
2 Second primary adapter (I/O address is A50)
3 Second alternate adapter (I/O address is A54)
drivername
Identifies the network driver. The driver name consists of the base
portion of the filename, plus a digit when more than one driver is
installed,. The drivername is olitok$ for the first driver, olitok2$ for
the second driver, and so on.
earlyrelease
Disables the early token release function on a 16 MBPS token ring if
this entry is set to no. The default is yes. The keyword is ignored on a
4 MBPS token ring.
maxrequests
Specifies the maximum number of outstanding general requests and
configures the size of general request queue.
maxtransmits
Specifies the maximum number of outstanding transmit chain
commands. This configures the size of the transmit chain request
queue. On an OS/2 server, this figure should be the NetBEUI
parameter DLC.MAXOUT times the maximum number of sessions.
nodeaddress
If specified, this entry will be used in place of the universal burned-in
node address on the adapter. The address must be administered
locally and is specified as three hexadecimal numbers, such as 0x4000
0x1234 0x5678.
recbufcount
Configures the number of receive buffers in the receive buffer pool.
The maximum size of the frames that may be received by the adapter
is determined by: min.(MaxFs, recbufsize * min.(8, recbufcount)),
where MaxFs is 4472 at 4 MBPS and 17954 at 16 MBPS. The
maximum amount of receive buffers, recbufsize * recbufcount, must
not exceed 64K.
recbufhigh
Configures the receive buffer pool in high (above 1 megabyte) or low
memory. The default value for this entry is 0, which causes the
receive buffer pool to be allocated for high memory. If the value for
this entry is 1, the receive buffer pool is allocated for low memory.
