Installation
To install the application, simply copy it to your hard drive.
Click on the question mark in the lower left corner of the tuner
window for basic operating instructions. For further details, see
the "Documentation and Examples" link.
For more information on how TCP/IP works and TCP tuning parameters,
we suggest : "TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1" by W.
Richard Stevens; and "Tips
for TCP/IP monitoring and tuning to make your network sing",
by Adrian Cockcroft. The latter reference is directed towards Sun
Solaris networking and is very similar to Open Transport since both
are based on Mentat Portable Streams and Mentat/TCP.
IPNetTuner "settings documents" are text files you can
easily edit. The OTTCPSlowLinkTuneup file, included as an example,
performs the same function as the "OTTCPSlowLinkTuneup"
patch that was distributed a while back. Any parameters not in the
file are set to their default values.
