Configuring System Settings
System Management
on the
Configurations
tab allow you to view and change the values of the available properties for the
system. The potentially available properties and their respective settings are described below.
Chimney Offload State
Enables TCP Offload Engine (TOE) for the entire system. On Windows Server 2008 operating systems, the options are Enable
(default) and Disable. For Windows Server 2008 R2, the options are Enable, Disable, and Auto (default). If Chimney Offload State is
configured for Auto, then a 10 Gbps network adapter will have TOE enabled, but not for a 1 Gbps network adapter.
To enable TOE for individual network adapters, configure Chimney Offload State to Enable and also enable TCP Connection Offload
(IPv4) or TCP Connection Offload (IPv6) from the Advanced area of the Configuration tab.
