ncakmod is used to start or stop the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator ("NCA") kernel module.

When the start option is specified at the command-line, the NCA kernel module will be activated for all physical interfaces listed in the nca.if file. When the ncakmod command is invoked with the stop option, the NCA kernel module will print the following message:

To stop NCA, please set the status configuration parameter to disable in ncakmod.conf and then reboot your system. See the ncakmod.conf(4) manual page for more information.

Note that in order to properly stop NCA on your system, you must first edit the ncakmod.conf(4) file and set the status field to "disable," then reboot your system.
