Select this choice to enable or disable Ethernet controllers and all standard ports
(such as serial and USB). Enable is the default setting for all controllers. If you
disable a device, it cannot be configured, and the operating system will not be
able to detect it (this is equivalent to disconnecting the device). If you disable the
integrated Ethernet controllers and no Ethernet adapter is installed, you will have
no Ethernet capability. If you disable the integrated USB controller, the server will
have no USB capability; to maintain USB capability, make sure that Enabled is
selected for USB Controller on the USB Support menu.
If the server is a SATA model, select this choice to determine the programming
interface for the SATA port.
