100 Mb Full
. Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex.
100 Mb Half
. Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Half-Duplex.
1 Gb Full
. Sets the speed at 1000 Mb Full-Duplex mode only. Not available
for 1 Gb ports.
10 GB Full
. Sets the speed to 10 Gbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex. Not
available for 1Gb ports.
Auto
(default). Sets the speed and mode for optimum network connection
(recommended).
Priority & VLAN
Allows enabling both the prioritization of network traffic and
VLAN tagging. VLAN tagging only occurs when the VLAN ID setting is configured
with a value other than 0 (zero).
Priority & VLAN Enabled (default)
. Allows for packet prioritization and
VLAN tagging.
Priority & VLAN Disabled
. Prevents packet prioritization and VLAN
tagging.
Priority Enabled
. Allows packet prioritization only.
VLAN Enabled
. Allows VLAN tagging only.
NOTE
Auto is the recommended setting. This setting allows the network
adapter to dynamically detect the line speed of the network. Whenever
the network capability changes, the network adapter automatically
detects and adjusts to the new line speed and duplex mode. A speed of
1Gbps is enabled by selecting Auto, when that speed is supported.
1Gb Full Auto must be attached to a link partner that is also capable of a
1Gb connection. Since the connection is limited to a 1Gb connection
only, the Ethernet@Wirespeed feature will be disabled. Additionally,
management traffic (IPMI or UMP) in the absence of an operating
system may also be affected.
100Mb Half settings force the network adapter to connect to the network
in Half-Duplex mode. Note that the network adapter may not function if
the network is not configured to operate at the same mode.
100Mb Full settings force the network adapter to connect to the network
in Full-Duplex mode. The network adapter may not function if the
network is not configured to operate at the same mode.
