<h1 class="topictitle1">The LANMAXOUT parameter</h1>
<div><p>The Maximum outstanding data frames (LANMAXOUT) parameter of your
Systems Network Architecture (SNA) controller description specifies
how many frames your system sends before waiting to receive an acknowledgment.</p>
<p>The LANMAXOUT parameter is highly sensitive to the remote
station's speed to copy and acknowledge frames (speed is based on buffering
capabilities and processing resource).</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The LAN window step (<a href="rzajylanwdwstp.htm#lanwdwstp">LANWDWSTP </a>)
parameter can influence the number of outstanding frames.</div>
<p><strong>Performance problems:</strong></p>
<p>For optimal performance, you must choose appropriate values for the LANMAXOUT
and <a href="rzajylanacktmrandlanackfrq.htm#lanacktmr_and_lanackfrq">LANACKFRQ</a> parameters
on both the sending and receiving stations.</p>
<p>These variables affect which LANMAXOUT and LANACKFRQ values provide the
best performance:</p>
<ul><li>The characteristics of the application.</li>
<li>The amount of data sent.</li>
<li>The rate that the application can present and accept data.</li>
<li>The data blocking characteristics.</li>
<li>The LAN adapter type.</li>
<li>The processing unit model.</li>
<li>The utilization of the line, the adapter, and the processing unit.</li>
<li>The internal buffering capabilities.</li>
</ul>
<p>In most environments, the default value (*CALC) for LANACKFRQ and LANMAXOUT
offer the best performance. However, for some environments, changing the values
can improve performance significantly.</p>
<p>If you want to change LANMAXOUT, see <a href="rzajychangingtimingparameters.htm#changing_timing_parameters">Change timing parameters</a>.</p>
