Selecting the NIC Port - QLE82xx Converged Network Adapter Selecting the NIC Port - QLE81xx Converged Network Adapter Select any of the tabs in the content pane to display configuration details related to the selected NIC port. The top portion of each of these pages provides general information that identifies the selected adapter as described in the following paragraphs: The name or IP address of the host connected to the adapter. Hostname – HBA Model The QLogic adapter model. – Port State Adapter port state. – IPv4 Address IP address of the selected host server when configured using the – IPv4 protocol. MAC Address Media Access Control (MAC) address hard-coded to the port. – Port Alias NIC port alias name. This is the symbolic name you assign to the – NIC port for identification purposes. Subnet Mask This value identifies the subnet in which the host server resides. – For example, if the selected host has an IP address of 172.17.141.6 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the communications protocols understand that all servers with the IP address of 172.17.141.x are connected within the same subnet. Gateway IP address of the server used to provide Internet access for the – selected adapter. IP address of the selected host server when configured using the IPv6 Address – IPv6 protocol. Select the Port Info tab to display general information about the selected port. Port Alias Use this field to assign an alias to the selected NIC port. – The section of the page identifies the following port Port Attributes Port Info attributes: Serial Number Serial number assigned at the factory to uniquely – identify the adapter. Driver Version Version of driver. The driver depends on the operating – system installed on the host server. Driver Name Name that identifies the driver module type, such as – qlcnic for a QLE82xx adapter or qlge for a QLE81xx adapter. Firmware Version NIC firmware version. – PXE Version Version of pre-boot execution environment (PXE). – Connection Type Type of adapter port connector, such as Copper or – Fiber. Duplex Settings Port duplex setting (Half/Full/Auto Duplex) – Link Speed Speed of port connection(100/1000 Mbs). –
