    IP Multicasting is a much better way to send data to groups, especially since routers and even switches can filter packets so they only reach those stations that are part of the group. The DFE-550TX goes one step further by examining multicast packets on the card itself (rather than using the computer’s CPU) and only accepting those packets for the group(s) in which the host belongs, thus conserving CPU utilization.
  • Page 9: Dmi/Desktop Management Interface

    DMI supports a management schema (Management Information Format [MIF]), allowing manageable components to be described within various platforms in a standard descriptive language. MIFs are extensible, allowing the DFE-550TX to export value-added management capabilities. These value-added management features enable remote troubleshooting and higher quality management of computer resources.

    This is far greater than the three mandatory counters implemented by most other network interface cards. The large number of counters on the DFE-550TX allows network management applications to provide accurate and detailed statistics on a wide range of network attributes. The packet counters...

    550TX and the supporting hub or switch is 100m. The cable must be straight-through (not a crossover cable), with an RJ-45 plug at each end. Make the network connection by plugging one end of the cable into the RJ-45 jack of the DFE-550TX, and the other end into a normal (non-Uplink) port on the supporting device.
