NIC1 Controller
Enable
Disable
Enable/Disable Onboard
Network Controller.
This will completely disable Onboard
Network Controller NIC1 or NIC2, 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.
This option only appears for onboard
Ethernet controllers. It does not appear for
onboard InfiniBand* controllers.
Ethernet controllers on IO Modules do not
have a disabling function that can be
controlled by the BIOS, so there is no
corresponding controller enable/disable
option for an IOM Ethernet controller.

Enable/Disable Onboard
NIC<n> Port<x>.
This will enable or disable Port<x, x = 1-4>
of Onboard Network Controller<n, n = 1-
2>, including associated Port PXE options.
The NIC<n> 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<n> is disabled.
Only ports that
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, and only Port1 will appear for a
single-port NIC.
Network controllers installed on an IO
Module do not have a port disabling
function that is controlled by the BIOS, so
there are no corresponding options for IO
Module NICs.
