Configuring Ethernet PCI Adapters

Use the PROSet utility to configure Ethernet PCI adapters (see “Starting PROSet” on page 2-7). PROSet is part of the Ethernet PCI adapter software.

Use PROSet to perform the following tasks:

Locate a PCI adapter (see “Locating Ethernet PCI Adapters” on page 2-15) in a system with many Ethernet PCI adapters.

Configure the line speed and/or duplex mode of an Ethernet PCI adapter with values appropriate to the adapter and the media to which it connects (see “Configuring Link Speed and Duplex Mode” on page 2-16).

Configure Ethernet PCI adapters into teams (see “Types of Fault-Tolerant Ethernet Teams” on page 2-9). For information about how to configure the teams, see “Configuring Ethernet Teams” on page 2-14.

Assign virtual LANs to a team (see “Virtual LANs” on page 2-13). For information about how to configure the VLANs, see “Configuring Virtual LANs Over a Team” on page 2-22.

Manage a team by removing or adding adapters, or removing the team (see “Managing Ethernet Teams” on page 2-27).

Modify the advanced settings of an individual Ethernet PCI adapter, a team, or a VLAN (see the PROSet online help).
