VLANs let a user see and access only specified network segments. This optimiIzes network efficiency and maintains security access restrictions. VLANs require special switches that are capable of supporting VLANs. All PRO/100+, PRO/100 S PCI and PRO/1000 adapters currently support VLANs when attached to a VLAN enabled switch. For specific compatibility notes, see VLAN Compatibility Notes.A* "/2A VLAN offers you the ability to group users and client PCs together into logical workgroups, a critical consideration when connecting clients to servers that are geographically dispersed across the building, campus, or enterprise network.Typically, VLANs group a common set of coworkers who are within the same department but in different locations, a cross-functional team working on a joint project, or a diverse set of users sharing the same network application.

In the case of hub or switch port, cable, or adapter failure, you can maintain uninterrupted network performance.Adapter Fault Tolerance is implemented with a primary adapter and a backup, or secondary, adapter.

With ALB, as you add adapters to your server, you can group them in teams to provide up to 800 Mbps (for PRO/100+ and PRO/100 S adapters) with a maximum of eight server adapters. The ALB software continuously analyzes transmission loading on each adapter and balances those across the adapters as needed.

PRO/1000 Gigabit Server Adapter Performance Notes (Gigabit ALB Teams Only)Because the PRO/NK1000 adapter already supports such high-bandwidth, using the ALB feature may cause reduced performance on some servers. This is because many servers available today do not have the CPU or Bus capacity to effectively handle teamed gigabit-class adapters. For best ALB performance, use newer servers that support multiple PCI buses and multiple Pentium(r) II processors running at a speed of 400 MHz or more. On such a server, install the teamed PRO/1000 adapters on separate PCI buses for maximum ALB performance.+N9( 2B{1{;Fast EtherChannel>9) "*6Fast EtherChannel*{o/ ,2Fast EtherChannel (FEC) is a performance technology developed by Cisco to increase your server's throughput. Unlike ALB, FEC can be configured to increase both transmission and reception channels between your server and switch. FEC works only with FEC-compatible Cisco switches. With FEC, as you add adapters to your server, you can group them in teams to provide up to 1600 Mbps (for PRO/100+ and PRO/100 S adapters) with a maximum of eight server adapters per team. (Note that the switch must support up to eight FEC adapters for eight adapters to work in FEC . Consult your switch documentation.)

By prioritizing traffic at the hosts or entry point of the network, network devices can base forwarding decisions on priority information defined in the packet.Priority Packet prioritizes traffic based on filters - parameters you assign to be applied to outgoing (transmit) packets. Using the Priority Packet Filter Wizard, you can set up pre-defined or custom filters based on a node (MAC) address, Ethernet type, or by various properties of the protocol and port. Priority Packet provides two different methods for prioritizing traffic: IEEE 802.1p tagging and Intel High Priority Queue.+ E ( 2?  ) ",6IEEE 802.1p TaggingeE / ,2IEEE 802.1p is a new IEEE standard for tagging, or adding additional bytes of information to, packets with different priority levels. Packets are tagged with 4 additional bytes, which increase the packet size and indicate a priority level. When these packets are sent out on the network, the higher priority packets are transferred first. Priority packet tagging (also known as Traffic Class Expediting) allows the adapter to work with other elements of the network (switches, routers) to deliver priority packets first. 802.1p tagging enables you to assign specific priority levels from 0 (low) to 7 (high). "A7 <2Using the 802.1p standard for packet tagging, you can assign values to packets based on their priority. This method requires a network infrastructure that supports packet taggi"AYng. The routing devices receiving and transferring these packets on your network must support 802.1p for tagging to be effective.After you set up the filter in Priority Packet, you must launch Intel PROSet and select 802.1p/802.1Q Tagging on the Advanced Settings tab.1CA Pr뀘a!NOTE:IEEE 802.1p tagging increases the size of the packets it tags. Some hubs and switches wont recognize the larger packets and will drop them. Check your hub or switch documentation to see if they support 802.1p.

It is similar to the Fast EtherChannel* (FEC) standard developed by Cisco. However, whereas FEC works only with FEC-compatible Cisco switches, IEEE 802.3ad works with those switches that support IEEE 802.3ad. With IEEE 802.3ad, as you add adapters to your server, you can group them in teams to provide up to 1600 Mbps (for PRO/100+ and PRO/100 S adapters) with a maximum of eight server adapters per team. (Note that the switch must support up to eight IEEE 802.3ad adapters for eight adapters to work in IEEE 802.3ad. Consult your switch documentation.) Teams can consist of two to eight adapters and you can have a maximum of two IEEE 802.3ad teams per server. The IEEE 802.3ad software continuously analyzes loading on each adapter and balances those across the adapters as needed. Adapter teams configured for IEEE 802.3ad also provide the benefits of Adapter Fault Tolerance. t@: B#2To use IEEE 802.3ad, you must have two or more server adapters installed in your server or workstation and linked to the same IEEE 802.3ad switch.IEEE 802.3ad Protocol Compatibility for Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0:IP, NetBEUI, IPX (NCP), IPX (NetBIOS)Note that only IPX packets type t@0 NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) are load balanced.

This technique allows the adapters to enter into a deep sleep mode which saves up to 150% more power (from 15mA in D3 cold with PME disabled down to 6mA when Smart Power Down is enabled).Smart Power Down (SPD) is based upon the concept of LINK changing states from valid to invalid. While valid and drivers/operating system loaded, the adapter will operates normally with the OS controlling the ACPI power management state. If LINK reports an invalid state, a flag is sent to the OS requesting we be placed in D3 state (lowest ACPI power state) and at the same time sets the LINK LOSS DEEP POWER DOWN (LLDPD) bit within the Power Management Control (PMC) register. This essentially turns off the adapter. While in this state, the driver will intermittently wake up the adapter to check to see if the LINK state has changed. If the state has changed, the LLDPD bit will be cleared and the adapter wakes up and operates normally. If the LINK state is still not valid, the driver will place the adapter back into SPD mode and will wait another few seconds before checking LINK status again.ލ) /2In system suspend states, the OS and driver are unloaded. In this case SPD functions slightly differently. When the user is suspending the system (Wake On LAN is not being requested by the user), the OS will tell the adapter that it is preparing to shut down. The adapter driver will do any housekeeping that is necessary in preparation for shut down and one of these functions is to determine if SPD has been enabled. If it has, it will set the LLDPD bit in the PMC register and place the adapter into deep sleep until the user wakes the computer and valid LINK has been re-established. This provides maximum power savings while suspend with PME disabled.tK^) 2In a computer that is suspended and monitoring the LAN for a wake up message, LLPDP will be enabled but will only be activated when LINK is invalid. In other words, if PME is active the PHY must be powered to monitor the LAN activity for a wake up message. Until this message is received, the computer will remain suspended with the PHY powered. If the LINK status changes during this time, the PHY will communicate it's LINK status change to the MAC which will then enable LLDPD and force a deep sleepލ^c state for the adapter. Before it does this, it will initiate a looping sequence within the MAC to occasionally wake the PHY up to check for LINK status (similar to above). If LINK becomes valid, the adapter resumes a D3 state with PME enabled and monitors for wake up messages. Otherwise it will place itself into a deep sleep state.-ލ) "2W&^1-I40Failed to Uninstall the Device MessageR)4) "R6Failed to Uninstall the Device Message0T vQ2r뜀ŀIf you try to remove an Adapter Team Listing or VLAN Listing using Device Manager, you will receive the following message: Failed to uninstall the device.
