Description

Locally Administered

The Locally Administered Address is a user-defined MAC address that is

Address

used in place of the MAC address originally assigned to the network

 

adapter. Every adapter in the network must have its own unique MAC

 

address. This locally administered address consists of a 12-digit

 

hexadecimal number.

 

Value

 

 

Assigns a unique node address for the adapter

 

Not Present (default)

 

 

Uses the factory-assigned node address on the adapter

 

The appropriate assigned ranges and exceptions for the locally

 

administered address include the following:

 

The range is 00:00:00:00:00:01 to FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FD.

 

Do not use a multicast address (least significant bit of the high byte =

 

 

1).

 

Do not use all 0s or all F's.

 

 

Maximum Transfer

The Maximum Transfer Unit property allows the network adapter to

Unit

transmit and receive oversized Ethernet frames that are greater than 1514

 

bytes, but less than or equal to 9000 bytes in length. This property

 

requires the presence of a switch that is able to process jumbo frames.

 

Frame size is set at 1500 bytes by default. To increase the size of the

 

received frames, increment the byte quantity in 500-byte increments.

 

 

Speed & Duplex

The Speed & Duplex property sets the connection speed and mode to that

 

of the network. Note that Full-Duplex mode allows the adapter to transmit

 

and receive network data simultaneously.

 

10 Mb Full

 

 

Sets the speed at 10 Mbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex

 

• 10 Mb Half

 

 

Sets the speed at 10 Mbit/s and the mode to Half-Duplex

 

100 Mb Full

 

 

Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex

 

• 100 Mb Half

 

 

Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Half-Duplex
