S2600GZ and S2600GL

Product Architecture Overview Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS
3.2.5.4
Network Interface
On-board network connectivity is provided by means of an Intel
®
Ethernet Controller I350-AM4 providing up to
four 10/100/1000 Mb Ethernet ports. The NIC chip is supported by x4 PCIe Gen2 signals from the IIO module
of the CPU 1 processor.
Each Ethernet port drives two LEDs located on each network interface connector. The LED at the right of the
connector is the link/activity LED and indicates network connection when on, and transmit/receive activity when
blinking. The LED at the left of the connector indicates link speed as defined in the following table:

Server Board S2600GZ/GL External RJ45 NIC Port LED Definition
The server board has seven MAC addresses programmed at the factory. MAC addresses are assigned as
follows:
 NIC 1 MAC address (for OS usage)
 NIC 2 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 1 (for OS usage)
 NIC 3 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 2 (for OS usage)
 NIC 4 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 3 (for OS usage)
 BMC LAN channel 1 MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 4
 BMC LAN channel 2 MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 5
 BMC LAN channel 3 (RMM) MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 6
The printed MAC address on the server board and/or server system is assigned to NIC1 on the server board.
3.2.5.5
I/O Module Support
To broaden the standard on-board feature set, the server board provides support for one of several available
IO Module options. The I/O module attaches to a high density 80-pin connector on the server board (J2B1)
labeled “IO_Module” and is supported by x8 PCIe Gen3 signals from the IIO module of the CPU 1 processor.
