This command sends a datagram to a specified name. The name can be either a unique name or a group name. If an adapter has a pending receive datagram command for the same name, the adapter receives its own message. The maximum datagram size depends on the underlying protocol. To find the maximum datagram size, you can perform a local NCBASTAT command. The ADAPTER_STATUS structure that is returned will give the maximum datagram size for the underlying transport protocol.
