Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters can use interrupt moderation to group these interrupts so that
several data packets can be handled per interrupt.
• Task Offload – Integrated Intelligent Functions
Calculation of TCP, UDP, and IP checksums is CPU-intensive and is normally performed by the
host CPU running the TCP/IP stack. These calculations are integrated in the hardware of the
Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters. The checksums are calculated without time loss in
SysKonnect’s PCI Gigabit Ethernet ASIC for both the receive path and the transmit path. This
improves the overall performance of the system and shifts these CPU-intensive tasks away from
the host CPU.
PCI Hot Plug
As a member of the PCI Special Interest Group, SysKonnect participated in the standardization of
the insertion and removal of PCI computer cards during normal server operation. Like all
SysKonnect PCI cards, the Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters comply with the Hot Plug PCI Standard.
This technology increases the availability of the server(s) used.
Other Highlights
The following features make the Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters particularly easy to operate,
powerful and future-oriented:
• Plug & Play compatible across the entire range
• Network management capability
• I
2
O-compatible
• Class of service
• VLAN
• Parity monitoring on all data paths
• Sensor-based monitoring of environment conditions (temperature/voltage)
