Adjusting IBM Token Ring NetBIOS parameters
900813-JAO01
INTRODUCTION:
=============
How to adjust IBM Token Ring NetBIOS parameters
WHY YOU NEED TO DO THIS:
========================
DXMT0MOD.SYS file from the IBM LAN Support Program Diskette ,
a config.sys file, and an editor.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
====================
IBM Token Ring NetBIOS appears as an entry in the config.sys
file as follows
DEVICE = DXMT0MOD.SYS
NetBIOS can be adjusted by adding parameters to this entry.
The parameters that can be adjusted which will affect
Progress are:
KEYWORD ABBR VALID VALUES DEFAULT
_______________________________________________________________
STATIONS ST 0 - 254 6
SESSIONS S 0 - 254 6
COMMANDS C 0 - 254 12
NAMES N 0 - 254 17
One or more parameter may be added, in the following example 32
stations and 32 sessions are defined:
DEVICE = DXMT0MOD.SYS ST=32 S=32
In the following example 32 stations, 32 sesssions, 32 commands,
and 32 names are defined:
DEVICE = DXMT0MOD.SYS ST=32 S=32 C=32 N=32
Parameters should be added after receiving errors such as "Name
could not be added to NetBIOS" when it appears that a maximum
number of users have attached to the database.
