CNTRL.EXE: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:31, 21 June 2016

It controls the stack for TCP/IP. TCP/IP Stack processing. CNTRL.EXE is a very important component of the stack. CNTRL.EXE provides threads for proper running of the stack. It provides a thread for each of the following:

IP input processing
TCP slow timeout processing
Debug thread for IP
ARP timeout processing
Ifndis debug thread
Watchdog thread for the adapter status
Loopback IP packets processing

CNTRL.EXE is normally started from CONFIG.SYS with a RUN=statement. It should be the first program to begin executing when TCP/IP is started. CNTRL.EXE for Version 4 is different from that in the Version 2.0 stack
