size of I/O buffers for network interfaces.

Hi all,
I'm searching how network interfaces buffers are sized in HP-UX 11i. Is there any kernel parameter to configure this?
The reason for this question is to know if there is a way to create larger buffers in order to cope with some traffic burst.

thanks.

Re: size of I/O buffers for network interfaces.

Hi,

The network parameters are set using ndd command. For the changes to be permanent you need to put them in /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf file. Man ndd to know regarding some particular parameter you would like to set.

HTH,

ndd -h supported

will get you a list of parameters you can modify.
