_cwnd_max

Description

Default

1,048,576

Range

128 to 1,073,741,824

Dynamic?

Yes

When to Change

Even if an application uses setsockopt (3XNET) to change the window size to a value higher than _cwnd_max, the actual window used can never grow beyond _cwnd_max. Thus, _max_buf should be greater than _cwnd_max.
