•Adaptive Interframe Spacing. Compensates for excessive Ethernet packet collisions on the network. The default setting works best for most computers and networks by dynamically adapting to the network traffic conditions. However, in some rare cases, you may obtain better performance by manually setting the spacing value. Setting a value forces a static gap between packets. Increasing the value increases the delay between frames being transmitted.

o Default = Disabled

o Range = Disabled; Enabled

•Enable PME. Allows the use of power management and wake-up functions. Supported on NC110x, NC310F, NC340x, NC360x, NC364x, NC6170, and NC7170 adapters only.

o Default for NC110x, NC360x, and NC364x adapters = OS Controlled

o Range for NC110x, NC360x, and NC364x adapters = OS Controlled; Disabled; Enabled
