The various helper DLLs provide contexts that you can use to perform specific tasks. You can
access some of these contexts directly from the command line using a command. Table 6.1 describes
each of the top-level contexts.

part of a network bridge. You can also use this context to enable or
disable Level 3 compatibility mode.
