Minimum and Maximum Packet Receive Buffers settings must both be
at least as large as the sum of the Receive Buffers settings for all the
P430 ports in the system. Use the NetWare MONITOR program
and select "Server parameters", then choose the "Communications"
category, and edit the fields labeled "Maximum Packet Receive Buffers"
and "Minimum Packet Receive Buffers."

:
Indicates the number of packets that can be
queued at once for transmission by the NIC. Increasing this value
may improve the transmit throughput of heavily-loaded servers;
however, in most situations the default setting should be sufficient.
After you have finished setting the options for the P430 port, select
"Save parameters and load driver" from the menu in the bottommost
window. The INSTALL program will then load the driver and ask you
for protocol parameters for that port, such as the IPX network number.
As mentioned above, any protocol stacks bound to the slave ports in
a group will not transmit or receive any actual network traffic, but at
least one protocol stack must still be bound to the port in order to
force the INSTALL utility to load the driver at all; therefore, for slave
ports, we recommend that you simply accept the default, randomly-
chosen IPX network number suggested by the INSTALL utility. Later,
you can edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file and manually delete the extra-
neous BIND commands in order to prevent the unnecessary bindings
from consuming system resources.
Finally, INSTALL will then ask if you want to select an additional
network driver; select Yes if there are still more P430 ports to
configure, and then return to step 11; otherwise, choose No.
