Boxcar logs an error, and terminates. Do not use leading zero(s) in an IP address
octet. For example 192.168.001.014 is incorrect, use 192.168.1.14 instead.

Specifies the device type and subtype for the Boxcar process. This parameter is
optional the default value is device type 15, subtype 3. To change the value of device
and subtype specify the new device type followed by a dash (-) followed by the
subtype. For example to set device type to 30 and the subtype to 10 the statement
would be:
BOXCAR-DEVICE-TYPE 30-10

Specifies the number of seconds between attempts to write queued message
cancellations or Queue Depth messages to the Boxcar log file. It also controls the type
of write operation Boxcar uses to write queued message cancellation messages to its
log, and also what actions Boxcar takes when its log file is full. This parameter is
optional, if not specified default the value 0 will be used. The minimum value is 0. The
maximum value is 2,147,483,647.
If this parameter is not present or its value is zero, Boxcar will log individual queued
message cancellation messages using a waited write operation. Queue depth
messages will be written using a no-waited write operation every time the queue is
cleared. When the Boxcar log file is full, Boxcar will use a waited write operation to log
an error 45 to $0 for every message it would normally write to its log file.
When this parameter contains a positive value, in the range specified above, Boxcar
will perform the following actions in response to these four events:
