  The information contained in this chapter is organized as follows:.
  
    - Programming Considerations: describes programming considerations
        for using NetIPC on an MPE XL computer system.
 
    
    - Common Parameters: provides details about the structure of the
        flags, opt, data, and
        result parameters which are common to many of the NetIPC
        calls.
 
    
    - NetIPC intrinsics: a table summarizing the functions of each
        NetIPC intrinsic is included followed by reference pages in alphabetical
        order for each of the NetIPC calls.
