When an rx2600, rx2620, rx4640, or rx5670 system has a total of 18 or more LAN ports (for
example, when 4 or more AB545A cards are installed), the EFI shell commands “info all”, info
io”, “lanaddress” and EFI Boot Manager Advanced System Information menus “Display ALL”
and “I/O information” are NOT supported. The A7011A/A7012A 2-port cards when used in
combination with a quantity of 3 AB545A 4-port cards on rx4640 or rx5670 could also cause a
system to exceed 17 LAN ports.

The AB545A card DOES NOT SUPPORT PCI 33 MHz operation. Therefore, do not place this
card in the shared slot of a system where the card in the neighboring shared slot is a 33 MHz
only card. See the AB545A PCI-X 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet Card Installation Guide for the list
of 33 MHz only cards.
