Max Stacks

This value should be set to 4 as shown. The need to increase the “Max Stacks” value will probably never arise, but if a protocol stack fails to load due to an “out of resources” condition, you should increase this value incrementally until the error condition is resolved. You cannot reduce this value safely below 4, even if you are only using a single protocol stack; the units of the value are not directly related to the number of stacks alone, and some stacks require more than one unit of this resource to operate correctly.

The default values used by LSL for each of these parameters is 4, so the “Max Boards” and “Max Stacks” parameters could actually be omitted from NET.CFG unless they needed to be increased. The resources represented by a unit value in each of these parameters is really quite small and the memory they require has already been accounted for in the approximated 2Kb of miscellaneous memory mentioned in the earlier allocation formulas.
