Configuring Driver Parameters
with ndd

The ndd (1M) utility is useful for changing configuration parameters for the
adapter. Alternately, adapter parameters can be changed by manually editing
the configuration files. This section describes the ndd utility in detail.

Note: Any changes made with

ndd

are temporary and will be lost when

you reboot the system. To make configuration changes survive the reboot
process, you will need to store driver settings in the

/etc/rc2.d/S99itialt

file (see Saving Driver Parameters Beyond

Reboot).

Available Parameters

To view parameters that you can set using the ndd command, type:

# ndd /dev/alt '?'

The system returns the following:

stat_ticks (read and write)
send_max_coalesced_bds (read and write)
send_coal_ticks (read and write)
recv_max_coalesced_bds (read and write)
