IPX Sockets

To avoid any potential confusion, this parameter should always be specified. The minimum value should be six (6) more than the maximum number of active users to be supported. For example, a server that will have 20 active users should have an IPX sockets value of at least 26. We recommend specifying a value of 36 for all installations, regardless of how many users are initially planned. The amount of memory reserved per socket is extremely small, and setting the value to 36 will support up to the maximum of 30 users without need for further adjustment.

Accordingly, the “IPX Sockets” parameter would be given as follows:

IPX Sockets 36

Note: the space character in “IPX Sockets” is required.
