DRIVER
A program, usually resident in server or workstation
memory, that controls network hardware (such as NICs
or controllers) or implements the protocol stacks
through which higher-level applications communicate
with the network hardware.
FAILOVER
PhobosLink setting for a redundant connection. If
a cable or port goes down, the network traffic will
automatically switch to the other available ports.
FIXED MODE
A trunking algorithm. Uses a static assignment
scheme based on the destination address, and is
equivalent to the transmit policy used by most
trunking switches.
INTERFACE
See Port.
PRIORITY TRUNKING
Bandwidth management on the NIC. With priority
trunking, specific network traffic that is transmited
out the NIC can be limited based on layer 3 and
layer 4 criteria.
P O RT
A physical network connection on the NIC.
ROUND-ROBIN
Trunking algorithm. Causes packets to be
transmitted alternately over all the ports in
the group regardless of destination address.
SERVER
A device that provides access to network services,
such as printers or applications, in a client-server
computing environment.
