Parameter documentation

Number of entries in the host name buffer. If the parameter value is not set, the default value of the network layer is used (100). Host names and service names are saved in this buffer since it can otherwise take considerable time to retrieve the names. The buffer contents can be displayed in the gateway monitor. If the number of entries is changed, the current entries are deleted.
