NET.CFG Options Reference
NetWare DOS Requester Option
NOTE: Use the VLM /D command line parameter to determine how much conventional
memory is used by this parameter setting.
LOAD LOW IPXNCP=[on | off]
Specifies whether the transport manager for IPX is loaded in high (XMS or
EMS) or conventional memory.
By default, the transport protocol implementation for IPX, IPXNCP.VLM, is
loaded in conventional memory.
If the value for this parameter is set to “off,” IPXNCP.VLM loads in upper
memory, saving memory but sacrificing performance.
NOTE: Use the VLM /D command line parameter to determine how much conventional
memory is used by this parameter setting.
LOAD LOW REDIR=[on | off]
Specifies whether the redirector is loaded in high or conventional memory.
This parameter influences the speed of repeated small file read/writes to the
network, such as database transactions.
By default, the redirector portion of the NetWare DOS Requester software,
REDIR.VLM, is loaded in high memory.
If the value for this parameter is set to “on,” REDIR.VLM loads in
conventional memory, increasing performance but sacrificing memory.
Syntax load low ipxncp=[on | off]
Default on
Modules IPXNCP.VLM
Example To load IPXNCP.VLM in upper memory, thereby saving
memory but sacrificing performance, you would place the
following lines in your NET.CFG file:
netware dos requester
load low ipxncp=off
