Onboard NIC1
Type
Onboard
NIC
Description
None.
Information only. This is a display showing which NIC is
available as Network Controllers integrated into the
baseboard. Onboard NIC will be followed by a section
including a group of options that are specific to the type
of NIC.
NIC1 Controller
Enabled
Disabled
Enable/Disable
Onboard Network
Controller.
This will completely disable Onboard Network Controller
NIC1, along with all included NIC Ports and their
associated options. That controller’s NIC Ports, Port PXE
options, and Port MAC Address displays will not appear.
Ethernet controllers on IO Modules do not have a
disabling function that can be controlled by BIOS, so
there is no c
orresponding controller enable/disable option
for an IOM Ethernet controller.
NIC1 Port x
Enabled
Disabled
Enable/Disable NIC1
Port x
This will enable or disable Port <x, x = 1-4> of Onboard
Network Controller 1, including associated Port PXE
options. The NIC 1 Port x PXE option and MAC Address
display will not appear when that port is disabled.
The associated port enable/disable options will not
appear when NIC 1 is disabled.
Only ports which actually exist for a particular NIC will
appear in this section. That is, Port1-Port4 will appear for
a quad-port NIC, Port1-Port2 will appear for a dual-port
NIC.
Network controllers installed on an IO Module do not
have a port disabling function that is controlled by BIOS,
so there are no corresponding options for IO Module
NICs.
