2.4.14 Network Interface Controller (NIC)
The Intel
®
server boards that use the S5000P chipset support two 10Base-T / 100Base /
1000Base-T network interface controllers (NIC) based on the Intel
®
82563EB controller. The
Intel
®
workstation boards that use the S5000X chipset support one 10Base-T / 100Base /
1000Base-T network interface controller (NIC) based on the Intel
®
82564EB controller.
Each network interface controller (NIC) drives two LED’s located on each network interface
connector. The link/activity LED (to the left of the connector) indicates network connection when
on, and Transmit/Receive activity when blinking. The speed LED (to the right of the connector)
indicates 1000-Mbps operation when amber, 100-Mbps operation when green, and 10 Mbps
when off. The table below provides an overview of the LED’s.

2.4.15 Wake On LAN / Power On LAN and Magic Packet* Support
The server board supports Wake On LAN / Power On LAN capability using the onboard network
interface chips or an add-in network interface card. An add-in network card can deliver the wake
signal to the server board via the PME signal on the PCI bus. The actual support for Magic
Packet and/or packet filtering for Wake On LAN / Power On LAN is provided by the NIC. The
server board handles the corresponding wake signal.
2.4.15.1 Wake On LAN with S4/S5
A configuration option is provided that allows the onboard NICs to be enabled to wake the
system in an S4/S5 state, even if the operating system disabled Wake-On-LAN when it powered
down the system. This provides an option for users who want to use standard, but non-secure,
WOL capability for operations such as after-hours maintenance. The DPC LAN capability
