Entries in the [ubneps] section of the LAN Manager PROTOCOL.INI
file have the following meanings:
drivername
Identifies the driver name of the network device driver. The base

installed, is the drivername. The drivername is ubneps$ for the first
driver, ubneps2$ for the second, and so on.
maxmulticast

configures the size of the multicast address table.
maxrequests
Specifies the maximum number of general requests that can be
outstanding simultaneously.
maxtransmits
Specifies the number of transmit-queue entries.
receivebuffers
If receivemethod is set to ReceiveChain, HostBuffered, this entry
specifies the number of receive buffers allocated in the host memory.
receivebufsize
Specifies the size, in bytes, of each receive buffer. This entry must
contain an even value and should be large enough to hold the normal
expected received frame.
