Driver Parameters
You can set the
ce
device driver parameters in two ways:
■
Using the
ndd
utility
■
Using the
ce.conf
file
If you use the
ndd
utility, the parameters are valid only until you reboot the system.
This method is good for testing parameter settings.
% ndd -set /dev/ce instance 0
% ndd -set /dev/ce accept-jumbo 1
