<h1 class="topictitle1">LANMAXOUT</h1>
<div><p>The Maximum outstanding data frames (LANMAXOUT) parameter of your
SNA controller description specifies how many frames your system sends before
waiting to receive an acknowledgment.</p>
<div class="section"> This parameter is highly sensitive to the remote station's speed
to copy and acknowledge frames (speed is based on buffering capabilities and
processing resource).<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The LAN window step (LANWDWSTP) parameter can influence
the number of outstanding frames.</div>
<p>The default *CALC value for LANMAXOUT
is 2.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Performance considerations</h4><p>For optimal
performance, you must choose appropriate values for the LANMAXOUT and LANACKFRQ
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>
