Load network adapter (if required)
If you are configuring a DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter, use the "load" command as shown below. CHARON-VAX 3100/96/98 and 4000/106/108 emulations automatically load SGEC (with the name "EZA") and therefore no "load" command is required.
Example:load DELQA/DEQNA NICLoad "packet_port"
Load "packet_port" to connect the SGEC, DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter to the host hardware network card (or to a virtual network interface).
Example:
load packet_port/chnetwrk NDIS interface = "connection:Charon"Connect the loaded "packet_port" to the loaded virtual network adapter
Connect the SGEC, DEQNA, DESQA, DELQA, DEUNA, DELUA, DEMNA, DEBNI or PMADAA adapter to the "packet_port" by setting the interface name.
Example:set NIC interface = NDIS
Network booting is supported with exception of VAX6xxx models.

| Parameter | rx_fifo_size |
|---|---|
| Type | Numeric |
| Value | "rx_fifo_size" sets the receive FIFO size. The value is specified in Kb and, by default, is pre-calculated from the connected port’s size of the receive queue. Typically, you do not need to change the "rx_fifo_size" parameter. It is available for extended tuning and debugging purposes. |

Packet Port
The CHARON-specific "packet_port" interface establishes a connection between an Ethernet adapter in the Windows host system and a network adapter in the virtual VAX/PDP11 system.

| Parameter | legacy_mode | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Type | Boolean | |||
| Value | If this parameter is set to "true" CHARON-VAX tries to use very first implementation of "packet_port" having certain restrictions such as inability to automatically change MAC address on given interface etc. This setting may be needed if CHARON-VAX runs in VMware environment for example and you do not want to allow promiscuous mode. In other situations please do not change its default value ("false"). Example:
