Intel® Server Boards S5000PSL and S5000XSL TPS Design and Environmental Specifications
3.5.1 Intel
®
I/O Acceleration Technolgy
Intel
®
I/O Acceleration Technology moves network data more efficiently through Dual-Core
Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor 5000 sequence-based servers for improved application responsiveness
across diverse operating systems and virtualized environments. Intel
®
I/OAT improves network
application responsiveness by unleashing the power of Dual-Core Intel
®
Xeon
®
processors 5000
sequence through more efficient network data movement and reduced system overhead. Intel
multi-port network adapters with Intel
®
I/OAT provide high-performance I/O for server
consolidation and virtualization via stateless network acceleration that seamlessly scales across
multiple ports and virtual machines. Intel
®
I/OAT provides safe and flexible network acceleration
through tight integration into popular operating systems & virtual machine monitors, avoiding the
support risks of 3rd-party network stacks and preserving existing network requirements such as
teaming and failover.
3.5.2 MAC Address Definition
Each Intel
®
Server Board S5000PSL / S5000XSL has four MAC addresses assigned to it at the
Intel factory. During the manufacturing process, each server board will have a white MAC
address sticker placed on the board. The sticker will display the MAC address in both bar code
and alpha numeric formats. The printed MAC address is assigned to NIC 1 on the server board.
NIC 2 is assigned the NIC 1 MAC address + 1.
Two additional MAC addresses are assigned to the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
embedded in the ESB-2. These MAC addresses are used by the BMC’s embedded network
stack to enable IPMI remote management over LAN. BMC LAN Channel 1 is assigned the NIC1
MAC address + 2, and BMC LAN Channel 2 is assigned the NIC1 MAC address + 3
3.6 Super I/O
Legacy I/O support is provided by using a National Semiconductor* PC87427 Super I/O device.
This chip contains all of the necessary circuitry to support the following functions:
GPIOs
Two serial ports
Keyboard and mouse support
Wake up control
System health support
