Table 10. Novell NetWare Server driver parameters (continued)

Parameter

Explanation

RTTS=

Route Switching Table Size. This parameter specifies the number of entries allowed in the
route table kept for Route Switching support. This should be set equal to or greater than the
number of remote stations this station will send data to using routable IP frames. If it is set
too low, some of the traffic that could be sent directly will instead be sent through the router.

Valid values: 16-1024

The default is 1024.

RTSM=

Route Switching IP Subnet Mask. This parameter contains a character string specifying the
IP subnet mask for the IP subnet to which this adapter will attach. This value is entered as
an IP dotted-decimal value (for example, 255.255.255.0). This is a mandatory parameter
when the RTSWMode parameter is set to Auto or Peer.

Valid values:

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

A dotted-decimal IP network number (15 characters maximum).

Disable

When not in use.

The default is Disable.

RTHT=

Route Switching Holding Time. This parameter specifies the Route Switching information
holding time value. This determines how often a remote station must refresh its Route
Switching information which pertains to this station.

Valid values: 2 to 20

The default is 20.

TPRn=

TCP Port Range. This represents a set of parameters which designate the transmit frame
priority value for a specified TCP port range. n is 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. The format of this 9-digit
hexadecimal string is:

PortNumber

PortNumber

PriorityValue

where each PortNumber is a four-character hex value and PriorityValue is a one-character
hex value. The two PortNumber fields define a starting and ending value that make up a
range, with the starting value less than or equal to the ending value.

Valid values:

PortNumber

0x0000 to 0xFFFF

PriorityValue

1 to 6

There is no default for this parameter.
