Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Does the NIC support shared interrupts?
A. The PCI NIC and the drivers supplied support shared interrupts.
However, because there is no industry-standard way of
implementing shared interrupts, other NICs may support them
differently, or not at all. If you have another PCI NIC that does not
support shared interrupts, either contact the manufacturer for a
shared interrupt driver or try to manually assign it a different
interrupt. Additionally, your Operating System may not properly
support shared interrupts.
Q. Can the NIC be configured to boot from the network?
A. Yes, but you can only boot a PC from the network if it has boot
ROM integrated in its BIOS (for example, the HP Vectra VL Series
600 PC) or if a boot ROM chip is installed on the NIC. This
component can be ordered from 3Com. To configure the card for
remote boot, use your PC's Setup program.
