‘Insmod’ Command Line Parameters 
The following parameters are used by entering them on the command line with the 
modprobe or insmod command. For example, with Intel based card model (ex. 5262, 
5164, etc.) entering:  
insmod dpm [ChipSelector=1] IntrHoldOff=0  
loads the dpm driver setting it for Intel chipset and setting the Interrupt Holdoff latency to 
zero (disabled).  
 
Parameter Name 
Valid 
Range/Settings 
Default Description 
SetAutoNeg 
0,1 1 
This parameter specifies the enabling of auto 
negotiation. 
DuplexMode 
0,1,2 
 
(0=half, 1=full, 
 2=both) 
Defines the direction in which data is allowed to 
flow. Can be either one or two-directional. If both. 
If auto negotiation is enabled, defines modes 
advertised. If auto negotiation is disabled sets 
duplex to this value. 
PauseFlowEn 
0, 1 
This parameter enables or disables pause frame 
flow control (typically enabled). 
IntrHoldOff 
0, 1 or 2 (0=off) 
This value delays the generation of receive 
interrupts in units of 100 microseconds. Receive 
interrupt reduction can improve CPU efficiency if 
properly tuned for specific network traffic. 
Increasing this value adds extra latency to frame 
reception and if set too high could decrease the 
throughput of TCP traffic.  
MediaSpeed 
10, 100, 1000 
1000 
If auto negotiation id disabled, speed forces the 
line speed to the specified value in megabits per 
second (Mbps). If auto negotiation is enabled, 
sets the highest speed advertised. 
 
(adapters using copper connections only)  
NumBufDescs 
80 - 4096 
256 
This value is the number of transmit and receive 
descriptors allocated by the driver. Increasing 
this value allows the driver to queue more 
transmit and receive buffers. Each descriptor is 
16 bytes.  
MaxMtuSize 
1500-9600 1500 
This value is the maximum mtu size supported in 
the driver. 
MaxBufferSize 
2048, 4096, 
8192, 16384 
2048 
Sets the maximum buffer size supported in the 
driver. 
AccAllUni 
0, 1 
Setting this parameter to one instructs the driver
