Page 15: Connecting The Network Cable
4 Connecting the Network Cable Connect a Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) network cable to the adapter as shown below. For 100BASE-TX, your network cable must be Category 5, twisted- pair wiring. If you want to run the adapter at 100 Mbps, it must be connected to a 100BASE-TX hub or switch (not a 100BASE-T4 hub). -
Page 16: Connect The Wake On Lan Power Cable
Chapter 4 Connecting the Network Cable Connect the Wake on LAN Power Cable For the Wake on LAN (WOL) feature to work correctly, the adapter must be connected to a continuous power source. This allows the HP NetServer 10/100 adapter to “listen to” the network even when the computer is turned off. -
Page 17: Using Wake On Lan
Chapter 4 Connecting the Network Cable Figure 4-1. Connecting the Wake On LAN Cable Locate the WOL connector on your motherboard. The location varies, depending on the vendor and model of motherboard. The WOL connector is usually located near other power connectors, such as the LED connectors. Connect the other end of the WOL cable to the connector on the motherboard as shown in Figure 4-1. -

Page 28: High Priority Queue
Chapter 5 Configuring the Adapter and Installing Drivers The requirements for effectively using IEEE 802.1p tagging are: The other devices receiving and routing 802.1p tagged packets must support 802.1p. The adapters on these devices must support 802.1p (adapters using the 82558 or later Ethernet controller). -

6 Installing Multiple Adapters The adapter’s 12-digit, hexadecimal Ethernet address is printed on a sticker placed on the adapter. The Ethernet address is sometimes called the node address or the MAC address. Note that the PCI slot number may not correspond with the physical connector in your NetServer. -
Page 31: Selecting Duplex Mode (Optional)
7 Selecting Duplex Mode (Optional) Duplexing is a performance option that lets you choose how the adapter sends and receives data packets over the network. The adapter can operate at full duplex only when connected to a full duplex 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX switch, or to another full duplex adapter. -
Page 32: Manually Configuring For Full Duplex
Chapter 7 Selecting Duplex Mode (Optional) Manually Configuring for Full Duplex If your switch supports auto-negotiation with the NWay standard, duplex configuration is automatic and no action is required on your part. However, many currently installed switches do not support auto-negotiation. Check with your network system administrator to verify whether your switch supports this feature. -

Chapter 8 Choosing Adapter Teaming Options Configuring Properties The default AFT properties are suitable for most applications. To adjust them, follow this procedure. Run HPSet. On the adapter list, select the desired AFT team. Click the Advanced Settings tab. Adjust parameters as required. Click Help for more information. - Page 40 Chapter 8 Choosing Adapter Teaming Options NOTE The HPANS.LAN driver requires more resources (memory) than a traditional LAN driver. To accommodate this, the minimum and maximum packet receive buffers need to be increased. The exact numbers depend on the complexity of the team; however, the following settings (which are to be added to the STARTUP.NCF file) should be sufficient for most single team systems.

9 Troubleshooting and FAQs If the Adapter Can’t Connect to the Network Make sure the cable is installed properly. The network cable must be securely attached at both RJ-45 connections (adapter and hub). The maximum allowable distance from adapter to hub is 100 meters. If the cable is attached and the distance is within acceptable limits but the problem persists, try a different cable. - Page 46 Chapter 9 Troubleshooting and FAQs LED Function Indicators Meaning ACT/LNK The adapter and switch are receiving power; the cable connection between the switch and adapter is good.

Page 49: 10Technical Information
10 Technical Information PCI Installation Tips PCI computers are designed to automatically configure add-in cards each time the server starts. Your PCI server sets the I/O address and IRQ level for your network adapter when the server starts. The adapter software cannot change these values. If you experience a problem when the server starts, you may need to follow additional configuration steps. -
