Modifying Configuration Parameters
After the NIC driver software has been installed, you can change the configuration
options at any time. The following NIC parameters are user-configurable:
■
Basic properties: Flow Control, Speed and Duplex, and Jumbo MTU.
■
Optional properties: Failover Team Configuration and VLAN Configuration.
NICs configured as part of a failover share basic configuration properties. Changing the
configuration of one NIC in a specific team changes the properties of all the NICs in
that team.
To access the NIC properties:

Open the Control Panel and double-click the
Network

Adapters
tab.

NOTE:
After installing the drivers, it is recommended that you install the 3Com
Management Programs to make full use of all management features. For more
