The nx360 M4 provides a dedicated Ethernet port that allows connection to the IMM2. It is a port to
access the IMM2 separately from the onboard two-port 1 Gb Ethernet controller. Alternatively, the first 1
Gb Ethernet port from the onboard controller can be configured in Shared mode in order to allow access
to the IMM2. With Shared mode enabled, the dedicated IMM port is disabled.
