Locally Administered
Address
The Locally Administered Address is a user-defined MAC address that is
used in place of the MAC address originally assigned to the network
adapter. Every adapter in the network must have its own unique MAC
address. This locally administered address consists of a 12-digit
hexadecimal number.
•Value
Assigns a unique node address for the adapter
• Not Present (default)
Uses the factory-assigned node address on the adapter
The appropriate assigned ranges and exceptions for the locally
administered address include the following:
• The range is 00:00:00:00:00:01 to FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FD.
• Do not use a multicast address (least significant bit of the high byte =
1).
• Do not use all 0s or all F's.
Maximum Transfer
Unit
The Maximum Transfer Unit property allows the network adapter to
transmit and receive oversized Ethernet frames that are greater than 1514
bytes, but less than or equal to 9000 bytes in length. This property
requires the presence of a switch that is able to process jumbo frames.
Frame size is set at 1500 bytes by default. To increase the size of the
received frames, increment the byte quantity in 500-byte increments.
Speed & Duplex The Speed & Duplex property sets the connection speed and mode to that
of the network. Note that Full-Duplex mode allows the adapter to transmit
and receive network data simultaneously.
• 10 Mb Full
Sets the speed at 10 Mbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex
• 10 Mb Half
Sets the speed at 10 Mbit/s and the mode to Half-Duplex
• 100 Mb Full
Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Full-Duplex
• 100 Mb Half
Sets the speed at 100 Mbit/s and the mode to Half-Duplex
•Auto
Sets the speed and mode for optimum network connection802.1p QOS
