;
; This is a sample NET.CFG file for OS/2 EE 1.30.2 and is to be placed
; in the root directory of C:\. According to the number of sessions etc.
; further modification of this file might be necessary.
;
; This sample NET.CFG is meant to supply some rudimentary understanding
; of parameters in NET.CFG and how they affect network operations.
; For a full desciption and explanation of the parameters, see the
; manual for the NetWare Requester for OS/2 Version 1.3, March 1991
; Edition or later, Novell Part # 100-000921-001.
;
; This file contains default settings to run a UNISYS Gateway, using
; the Computer Logics product (formerly CHI), which is using Named Pipes
; as the LAN protocol in the current implementation.
;
; This NET.CFG contains additional informations that was collected
; during the period of "stabilizing" the Munich Network MUC II including
; any updates from Novell of their Named Pipe code up to NSD005 (!!!),
; supposed to be publicly released in 1993 (will they ever do it ??).
;
; This configuration is valid for the 32 Sessions Gateway, running under
; the NetWare Requester Version 1.3 NSD005 for OS/2 1.3, and has been
; tested under IBM OS/2 Extended Edition 1.3 Syslevel WRU5015
; up to WRU5100.
;
; Remember to set the Token Ring of any gateway running this NET.CFG file
; to 64 KB Shared RAM. The Token Ring IRQ should be set to IRQ 10,
; with the CHI Card set to IRQ 9. Further experiences are welcome.
;
; Latest changes done on 16th of May, 1993 by FRA AV3/WT, ha.
;
; Should you discover any mistakes or additional information worth to be
; included in this NET.CFG, please contact FRA AV3/WT by MEMO or
; fax: (49) 69 696 8002. You may also reach us via CompuServe under
; the following ID: CI$ 75470,3256.

;
; Link Driver:
; If you are using TOKEN.SYS to run WITHOUT Communications Manager, and
; still want to set the Token Ring Address to a locally administered address,
; you would specify TOKEN as the Link Driver NAME, and then replace
; Node Adress NUMBER with the twelve digits of the LAA (Locally
; Administered Address) to be used.
;
; This NET.CFG does not yet include the information about the new driver
; architecture ODINSUP.SYS, which is part of Novell's architecture to
; support IBM's new "LAPS"-technology (LAN Adapter and Protocol Support),
; based on Microsoft's NDIS specification version 1.02, that is part of IBM's
; Extended Services/2. Such information on the additional settings in NET.CFG
; for ODINSUP.SYS plus related changes in CONFIG.SYS as well as PROTOCOL.INI
; will be documented by FRA AV3 in the near future as part of our efforts
; to support the DA/Unix project. Refer for the time being to the Novell
; document ODINSP.DOC.

; Link Support:
; Controls the number and size of Communication buffers used by the Requester.
; The buffer size possible depends on the Communications Manager Configuration
; File activ at boot time (i.e. in CONFIG.SYS: DEVICE=C:\CMLIB\TRNETDD.SYS
; CFG=C:\CMLIB\IWS.CFG). Each CM Profile under the Topic "Advanced
; Configuration" has the "LAN Feature Profiles", under which for the Token
; Ring Adapter you find the IEEE 802.2 Profile. In this profile there is a
; "Transmit Buffer Size" specified, which is also the largest buffer size
; NetWare can get out to the LAN through CM (when using CMGRLAN.SYS)
; minus 6 bytes for header overhead.
; Default is 1944 and might be set to a maximum of 4464 Bytes on a 4 MBit
; Token Ring Network, if Shared RAM allowes.
; Since the Novell DEFAULT is 1130 Bytes for its own Link Support Buffers,
; the minimum Transmit Buffer Size to be specified for CM should be
; 1130 + 6 = 1136 Bytes.

;
; Values:
; Sessions COUNT ranging from 8 - 256, default is 16.
; Attention: In this implementation of Named Pipes Support,
; 2 GDT Entries are allocated for each SPX session
; at boot-time. GDT-Entries (Global Descriptor Table) are
; a scarce system ressource when running Extended Edition
; with Communications Manager. The system will boot into a
; TRAP 00D if those ressources are finished. This problem
; will go away with OS/2 2.0.
; Depending on the implementation of any Named Pipes application
; making use of SPX sessions as the underlying transport
; protocol, you may have to calculate the number of SPX-sessions
; as follows: Add Named Pipes Client sessions plus Named Pipes
; Server sessions and multiply the result by two. If you run into
; boot-problems (TRAP 00D) with that configuration, you may have
; to reduce SPX sessions.
; Abort Timeout NUMBER ranging from 10 - unlimited, default is 30000.
; This value determines how long a client will wait for
; the NP gateway before closing that particular SPX
; session it had for its Named Pipe connection to the Gateway.
; Reducing that number from the default should make it easier
; for the CHI client to reconnect to a rebooting Gateway.
; Verify Timeout NUMBER ranging from 10 - unlimited, default is 3000.
; Listen Timeout NUMBER ranging from 10 - unlimited, default is 6000.
; Send Timeout NUMBER is an undocumented parameter that was added with
; NSD004 for compliance with the requester for OS/2 2.0.
; It specifies the timeout for SPX to re-transmit an SPX packet.
; Default is 500.
; Retry Count NUMBER ranging from 1 - 255, default is 20.
;
; When applying NSD004 updates to your machine, be shure to also install
; part of the forthcomming NSD005 files. Especially you should have:

; Named Pipes:
; Any NetWare Named Pipes Server can also be accessed by a DOS workstation

; to use the CHI OS/2 Unisys Gateway. However, the DOSNP.EXE needs to wait
; for up to 60 seconds after loading before it can successfully connect to
; a network Named Pipe due to the NP Server having to advertise himself via
; the Service Advertising Protocol (SAP). Remember to load DOSNP.EXE after
