Action: Be sure the packet receive buffers are set high enough. Toggle over to

port is recommended, and the maximum setting should be 125 more than the
minimum. To make the setting changes:
1. Type the following commands at the System Console screen (where XXX is
the new numeric value):
Set Minimum Packet Receive Buffers=XXX
Set Maximum Packet Receive Buffers=XXX
2. Add the commands to the STARTUP.NCF file.
