Specifies the maximum number of PIUs or PIU segments (if the session parameters allow segmenting of data) that VTAM® sends to the physical unit represented by this definition statement before requesting a response.
For performance reasons, you should code MAXOUT=7 if the physical unit represented by this definition statement can handle more than one PIU before sending out a link-level response. To determine this, consult the component publications for the specific type of SDLC station.
Note: MAXOUT is ignored for type 2.1 nodes attached through
an IBM 3172 Nways Interconnect Controller
or through an IP network for Enterprise Extender.
