maintained.
0011b ACTIVITY
Asserted when link is established and packets are
being transmitted or receive activity that passes
filtering.
0100b LINK/ACTIVITY
Asserted when link is established and when there is
no transmit or receive activity that passes filtering.

in a PCI 66 MHz or a PCI-X 133 MHz configuration
(high-speed PCI operation), deasserted for 33 MHz
PCI and 66 MHz PCI-X (as determined by pins
sampled at PCI reset).
