I believe the other option (NOW site has more detail) was 1153. So long
as the settings match on both sides (NetApp and Windows), you should be
in good shape with no negative effects.
There is a registry setting introduced in windows a few years back that
allows for a single TCP\CIFS session per user session, rather than a
TCP\single CIFS session shared by all users.

I think we are also at 253. We have a lot of citrix servers....each
with up to 200-250 citrix sessions on it at the same time. We did not
see anything on the downside after making the change....we did it based
on the output of cifs stats
