o Default = Disable (NC110, NC360x, NC364x Default=OS Controlled)

o Range = Disable; Magic Packet; Direct Packet Magic and Direct Packets; OS Controlled

•Large Send Offload. Enables offloading of large TCP packets (NC110T, NC310F, NC340x, NC360x, NC364T, NC6170, and NC7170 only). Windows 2003 and Windows 2003 x64 only.

o Default = Enabled

o Range = Disabled; Enabled

•Gigabit Master Slave Mode. (NC110x, NC360x, NC364x only) Determines IEEE 802.3ab Master- Slave resolution during gigabit auto negotiation.

o Default = Auto Detect

o Range = Auto Detect, Force Master Mode, Force Slave Mode

•Smart Power Down. (NC110T, NC360x, and NC364T only) Minimizes power consumption by enabling the adapter to enter a deep sleep mode under certain conditions.

o Default = H/W Default

o Range = Disable, H/W Default, Enable

•Wake on Link. (NC110T, NC360x, and NC364T only) Allows wake-up from Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) when link is reconnected. Windows 2003 and Windows 2003x64

•Number of Transmit Descriptors: Minimum/Maximum. Specifies the number of descriptors to allocate per Transmit Control Block (TCB). This value directly affects the number of map registers allocated for the adapter (the higher the number, the more map registers are allocated).

o Default = 200

o Range = 100–600

NOTE: This property is not supported on HP Multifunction Server Adapters.

•Number of Receive Descriptors: Minimum/Maximum. Specifies the number of descriptors used by the driver when copying data to the protocol memory. In high network load situations, increasing receive descriptors can increase performance. The tradeoff is that this also increases the amount of
