0. Otherwise, the value must be non-zero so that
every Remote IPL server has a chance to service the
request.

which the number of unanswered IPL requests
specified in Field 3 must be received before a default
IPL configuration is used.
5 N or A This field specifies whether the remote IPL server
acknowledges each packet sent. The valid values are
A (acknowledge) or N (do not acknowledge). Usually,
N is specified since A increases network traffic.

the \IBMLAN\DCDB\IMAGES directory path from this
share. For OS/2 and WorkSpace On-Demand RIPL,
this field must contain a tilde character.
