Default value of network interface - txqueuelen & net_dev_max_backlog

Hi,

Any one help me to identify default values of below parameters of network inetrfaces.

We have superdome server ia64 SD32 and hpux 11.23.

txqueuelen -- need default value in hpux 11.23 and need command to check default value

net_dev_max_backlog -- need default value in hpux 11.23 and need command to check default value

Kindly also help us to find out command to identify above parameters ?

kindly also help us to replace above default parameters ?

Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Thanks & Kind Regards,

Sajjad Ahmed

These are Linux tunables, not found in HP-UX. All the network tunables for HP-UX can shown with ndd:

ndd -?

Tuning of the HP-UX IP network stack is mostly done via the ndd command - take a look at this whotepaper:

From Duncan's link, it appears that net_dev_max_backlog may be tcp_conn_request_max.
txqueuelen may be tcp_xmit_hiwater_max?
