Viewing Network Adapter Properties

Name	Description
Configuration Pending field	If this field displays yes, the adapter configuration has changed in CIMC
	but these changes have not been communicated to the host operating
	system.
	To activate the changes, an administrator must reboot the adapter.
Description field	The user-defined description for the adapter, if any.
FIP Mode field	Whether FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP) mode is enabled. FIP mode
	ensures that the adapter is compatible with current FCoE standards.
NIV Mode field	Whether Network Interface Virtualization (NIV) is enabled.
	If NIV mode is enabled:
	• vNICs and vHBAs can be assigned to a specific channel
	• vNICs and vHBAs can be associated with a port profile
	• vNICs can fail over to another vNIC if there are communication
	problems

Step 8 In the External Ethernet Interfaces area, review the following information for the adapter:

Name	Description
ID column	The uplink port ID.
MAC Address column	The MAC address of the uplink port.
Link State column	The current operational state of the uplink port. This can be one of the
	following:
	• Fault
	• Link Up
	• Link Down
	• SFP ID Error
	• SFP Not Installed
	• SFP Security Check Failed
	• Unsupported SFP
Encap column	The attribute added to the virtual network tag (VNTag) to support
	Network Interface Virtualization (NIV).

Step 9 In the Firmware area, review the following information for the adapter:
