Data rate
Use the Data Rate field to specify the amount of data to be transferred per second over your
LAN connection. To set the data rate, select the data-transfer rate in Mb
your network capability. To automatically detect the data-transfer rate, select Auto, which is
the default value.
Duplex
Use the Duplex field to specify the type of communication channel used in your network.
To set the duplex mode, select one of the following:
Full enables data to be carried in both directions at once.
Half enables data to be carried in either one direction or the other, but not both at the same
time.
To automatically detect the duplex type, select Auto, which is the default value.
Maximum
Use this field to specify the maximum size of a packet (in bytes) for your network interface.
transmission unit
For Ethernet, the valid maximum transmission unit (MTU) range is 60 - 1500. The default
<60-1500>
value for this field is 1500.
Locally administered
Enter a physical address for this Remote Supervisor Adapter in the Locally Administered
MAC address
MAC address field. If a value is specified, the locally administered address overrides the
burned-in MAC address. The locally administered address must be a hexadecimal value from
000000000000 through FFFFFFFFFFFF. This value must be in the form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
where X is a number between 0 and 9. The Remote Supervisor Adapter does not support the
use of a multicast address. A multicast address has the least significant bit of the first byte set
to 1. The first byte, therefore, must be an even number.
Burned-in MAC
The burned-in MAC address is a unique physical address assigned to this Remote Supervisor
address
Adapter by the manufacturer. The address is also a read-only field.
