Description
Adapter Instance:To distinguish each network card installed in the
system, each is assigned a unique instance number.Typically, the first
network card detected is instance 1, and the next is instance 2.
Bus: Shows the PCI bus on which the network card is operating.
The number shown is typically 0 for a system with up to four PCI slots
on its bus.The number may be slightly higher for servers with more
than four PCI slots.
Slot: Shows the PCI slot number where the Model GA620 or Model
GA620T Gigabit Ethernet Card is installed.
When checked (default): 802.3z-compliant Gigabit Ethernet Link
Negotiation is used. All Model GA620 and Model GA620T Gigabit
Ethernet Cards use Link Negotiation by default.
When unchecked: Link Negotiation is disabled and only link signal
detection is used. Use this setting when connecting to Gigabit Ethernet
equipment that does not support Link Negotiation or if there is a
problem establishing a link between the card and the connecting device.
The link is set for 1000 Mbps. Be sure that the connecting device uses
the same duplex mode and speed settings.
When checked (default) and link negotiation is enabled:The card
negotiates 802.3x receive flow control with the device at the other end
of the link. If 802.3x flow control is supported by the other device,
receive flow control is enabled.
When unchecked or link negotiation is disabled: Receive flow control
is disabled.
When checked and link negotiation is enabled:The card negotiates
802.3x transmit flow control with the device at the other end of the link.
If 802.3x flow control is supported by the other device, transmit flow
control is enabled.
When unchecked (default) or link negotiation is disabled, transmit flow
control is disabled.
