Chapter 9 Network Device Driver Options 249
netaddress
Overrides the burned-in-address of the network adapter. This entry is
a 12-digit hexadecimal string enclosed in quotation marks, such as
"02608C010001".
noearlyrelease
Specifies that the early token release should be disabled. Early token
release reduces the average time another network adapter must wait
to transmit a frame.
numreceivebuffers
Specifies the number of receive buffers to allocate.
pseudodma
Indicates that the driver should use pseudo-DMA on M8113 adapters.
This entry allows the network adapter to run in machines that do not
support bus mastering.
receivebuffersize
Specifies the size, in bytes, of buffers used to queue received frames
in the driver. Performance is improved if a received frame fits in one
buffer. Use this formula to determine maximum frame size:
maxframesize= min (min (8, numreceivebuffers) *
receivebuffersize, mediamaxsize). (The value of mediamaxsize is
17960 at 16 MBPS, 4490 at 4 MBPS.)
