NET.CFG Options Reference
NetWare DOS Requester Option
On = interrupt 24 handles network errors
Off = return NET_RECV_ERROR (example: 8805h)
LARGE INTERNET PACKETS=[on | off]
Sets the Large Internet Packet (LIP) packet size above the default of 576
bytes.
In the past, NetWare communicated across routers and bridges with a 576-
byte maximum packet size. However, Ethernet and token ring are capable of
using larger packets for communication.
When the value for this parameter is set to “on,” the maximum packet size
negotiated between the NetWare server and the client workstation is used,
even across routers and bridges.
Syntax handle net errors=[on | off]
Default on
