When an adapter configuration is saved, the NetWare installation program adds load and bind
statements to the Autoexec.ncf file. By accessing this file, you can view and modify properties
or add properties for each network adapter.
NOTE: The Novell monitor program and the config command are also useful for viewing
driver configuration properties. For information on how to use these programs, see the
Utilities Reference in your Novell NetWare online documentation.
The properties that can be defined in the load statements are described below:
Configuration Properties for the B57.lan driver
TxDescriptors=
Initializes Descriptor resources on the adapter for transmits.
Min = 100
Max = 512
Default = 120
RxBuffers=
This is to pre-allocate receive ECBs & Receive adapter resources. This setting may be affected
by the NetWare Server maximum/minimum packet receive buffer settings.
Min = 32
Max = 1000
Default = 200
Speed=
This keyword forces the line speed of the adapter. When this keyword is used, the switch to
which the adapter cable is connected must be forced. Otherwise, the adapter and switch may
run at different duplex modes. It is important to have the switch and adapter set properly.
The best way to ensure good connectivity is to not set the speed keyword and allow for
automatic link setup (auto-negotiation).
