Software Requirements of Ethernet PCI Adapters
Ethernet PCI adapters require the following software:
•
sragbe.sys Ethernet driver
The Express5800/320Ma System Software initial program load (IPL) installs this
driver for all 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet adapters supplied by NEC Solutions
(America), Inc. PnP (Plug and Play) Manager recognizes the driver and loads it
automatically.
This Ethernet driver has an addedsurprise removal feature to increase fault
tolerance. The surprise removal feature prevents system crashes in the event that
a PCI adapter is removed without software notification to the system.
•
Intel(R) PROSet for Wired Connections utility, Version 9.0
The Express5800/320Ma System Software IPL installs this utility automatically.
