Configuration Setup
The Boot Agent software provides configuration options that allow you to
customize the behavior of the Boot Agent software. Changing the Boot Agent
configuration will usually be required only the first time you add a new
network adapter to a client computer within your network. You can configure
the Boot Agent within any of the following environments:
v Pre-boot environments (before operating system is loaded)
v Windows environments
v DOS environments
Packet Protect
Packet Protect enables you to:
v Protect confidentiality and authenticity of IP traffic on your LAN using
Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), including Internet Key Exchange (IKE).
v Offload security tasks to an Intel PRO/100 S Management or Server Adapter
to optimize network performance.
Adaptive Link Response
The Adaptive Link Response feature allows the MiniPCI adapter installed in a
mobile product to recognize whether or not the network cable is connected to
the LAN card. This will avoid the Domain Login error No Domain Server was
available to validate your password.
v If no network link is detected, the operating system will display a two-line
login window, and will not fully load the LAN driver.
v If a network link is detected, the operating system will display a three-line
login window, and will fully load the LAN driver.
