Configuring the Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provide an
interface for connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provide
full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception
of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto-negotiation,
the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or
1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and
automatically operate at that rate and mode.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controllers. However, you must
install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controllers.
To find device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet controllers, go

Enabling Features on Demand Ethernet software
You can activate the Features on Demand (FoD) software upgrade key for Fibre
Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI storage protocols that is integrated in the
integrated management module. For more information and instructions for activating
the Features on Demand Ethernet software key, see the
IBM Features on Demand
User’s Guide . To download the document, go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/x/fod/,

Enabling Features on Demand RAID software
Integrated into the integrated management module is a Features on Demand RAID
software upgrade key that you can activate to get support for RAID levels 5 and 50
or 6 and 60 (depending on the Features on Demand key). For more information and
instructions for activating the Features on Demand RAID software key, see the
