Network Status

The following network status information is provided.

Driver Status

The status of the adapter driver

Loaded

Normal operating mode. The adapter driver has been loaded by
Windows and is functioning.

Not Loaded

The driver associated with the adapter has not been loaded by
Windows.

Information Not
Available

The value is not obtainable from the driver that is associated with the
adapter.

Driver Name/Version/Date

The file name of the adapter driver.

LiveLink IP Address

The network address of the LiveLink enabled adapter.

Offload Capabilities

The offload capabilities supported by the adapter.

LSO

Large Send Offload prevents an upper level protocol such as TCP
from breaking a large data packet into a series of smaller packets
with headers appended to them.

Checksum Offload allows the TCP/IP/UDP checksums for send and
receive traffic to be calculated by the adapter hardware rather than
by the host CPU.

BASP State

Information about the status of the BASP application. This
information is displayed only when there is a team (

"1.3.3

Teaming Function"(pg.109)).

Item

Description

Link Status

The indicator is green if a link is established. A red indicator means
that a link is not established.

Speed

The link speed of the adapter

Duplex
