Property | Parameter | |
|
| |
Locally Administered | Enables users or administrators to set the Locally Administered Address. This address | |
Address | overrides the permanent address of the adapter (that may have been flashed to the | |
| hardware). | |
| • | Format: Hex |
| • Values: Valid/Not Valid (if Valid, enter the 12 hex characters of MAC address) | |
| If an invalid MAC address is entered, an error message is logged in the event log. If | |
| the MAC Address entered by the user is determined to be invalid, the user input | |
| value is ignored and the MAC address used will be the physical address burned on | |
| the card. The following addresses are invalid: | |
| • | 000000000000 |
| • | FFFFFFFFFFFF |
| • | Multicast MAC address |
|
| |
Max Ethernet Frame | Sets the Ethernet frame size for packet transmission and receive (does not include | |
Size | MAC Header). | |
| • Default: 1500 (corresponds to 1514 bytes on the wire + 4 bytes of CRC) | |
| • | Min: 1500 |
| • | Max: 8000 |
|
| |
Max Jumbo Buffers | Specifies the number of 8K (jumbo) buffers for receive, in addition to the standard | |
| frame size buffers specified by "Max Receive Buffers." This is a separate pool of | |
| buffers used by the network adapter when the incoming frame is more than the | |
| standard frame size. | |
| • | Default: 4096 |
| • | Value: 1024/2048/4096/8192 |
| If the MaxFrameSize is set to 1500, the Max Jumbo Buffers parameter is ignored. | |
|
| |
Maximum Receive | Sets the number of packet buffers on the receive (DMA memory and stack). Size of | |
Buffers | each buffer is 1536 bytes. | |
| • | Default: 8192 |
| • | Value: 1024/2048/4096/8192/16384 |
|
| |
QoS Packet Tagging | Specifies support for 802.1p (priority) tagging or 802.1q (Vlan) tagging by the | |
| Ethernet controller on a | |
| • | Default: Enabled |
| • | Values: Enabled/Disabled |
|
| |
Receive IP Checksum | Enables the receive IP checksum offload. | |
Offload | • | Default: Enabled |
| ||
| • | Values: Enabled/Disabled |
|

|
| |
Receive TCP/UDP | Enables the receive TCP and receive UDP checksum offload. | |
