ment) is used. For reliable function of this mechanism it is necessary that wake on LAN (WOL) is
configured in the server configuration (see section
3.4.3 Configuring a distributed system
) and that WOL
is also enabled in the BIOS of the mainboard of the respective rendering machines (see section
6.1.9 BIOS settings for Wake On LAN
Connectors
The onboard LAN adapter, the 100 Mbps and the 1000 Mbps network card offer each a Twisted Pair connection:

Order
The PCI Express network card is inserted in the first PCIe x1 slot. A second PCI Express network card can be in-
serted into the PCIe x16 slot.
The PCI network cards are inserted into the PCI slot of the P
ROCESSOR
with the highest number. If several network
cards are used they are inserted consecutively. They are numbered in ascending order for descending PCI slot
numbers.
The Ethernet addresses are labeled on the network cards.

If using different types of network cards, this type determines the order as well. The system
detects first the onboard LAN adapter, then 100 Mbps network cards in the order of the PCI
slots and finally the 1000 Mbps network cards. Therefore to get a straight numbering of the
cards the 1000 Mbps network cards should be inserted in the PCI slots with the higher
numbers than the 100 Mbps network cards.
Inserting a network card in an OmniBus or Extender is not supported!
