Chapter 6: Modifying Advanced Properties
Interrupt Moderation
The Interrupt Moderation feature allows you to limit the rate of interrupts to the CPU during packet transmission and packet reception. When this feature is enabled, interrupts are handled as a group so that the CPU utilization decreases; however, the latency may increase.
To enable or disable the Interrupt Moderation feature, do the following:
1.Access the Advanced Properties.
See “Accessing Advanced Properties” on page 87.
2.Select Interrupt Moderation in the Property box.
The Interrupt Moderation page is displayed as shown in Figure 65.
