Changing PACE Configuration 4-5
Changing PACE Ranges and Protocols
You can add information for PACE applications not listed
on the PACE Applications screen. You must specify the port
or socket ranges as well as the network protocol being
used. Refer to the PACE application user guide. The PACE
network driver uses these ranges to determine whether a
packet should be treated as high-priority.
1 To add the PACE ranges and protocols, click the
Additional Ranges tab.
The PACE Additional Ranges screen appears.
2 Enter the beginning of the port or socket range for
the application in the Range Start box.
The range should be a four-digit hexadecimal value.
3 Enter the Range End value of the port or socket range
for the application.
The range end should be a four-digit hexadecimal number.
If only one port or socket is needed, Range End should
match Range Start.
4 Select the protocol that the application uses.
The protocol can be TCP, UDP, or IPX. Some applications
support multiple protocols and have port or socket ranges
for each protocol. In this case, the range or protocol must
match the protocol on the PC.
For example, if only TCP/IP is installed, do not enter the
socket range for IPX; otherwise, you could experience a
decrease in performance.
5 Once the Range Start, Range End, and Protocol are
entered, click Add.
The range is added to the list.
To remove a range, select the range in the list and
click Remove.
