Network Adapter Inventory
•
NIC Configuration
Displays the name and location of the network adapter
◦
◦
Displays the supported and negotiated PCI protocol (bus speed) of the network adapter
◦
Lists the number of ports on the NIC adapter, including any upgrade modules installed
on the network adapter
•
NIC Ports—Displays all IP addresses assigned to the network ports
•
Network Teams—The state of all the ports on all network adapters
Network port
The following information is provided for a network port.
Network Port Status
•
MBytes/Sec—The average number of megabytes transferred (transmitted or received) over
the NIC port each second.
•
MBits TX/Sec—The average number of megabits transmitted from the selected NIC port each
second.
•
MBits RX/Sec—The average number of megabits received by the selected NIC port each
second.
•
TX Utilization %—The percentage of data that is transmitted from the selected NIC port. This
value is calculated from the TX MBits/Sec and the operating speed of the NIC port.
•
RX Utilization %—The percentage of data that is received from the selected NIC port. This
value is calculated from the RX MBits/Sec and the operating speed of the NIC port.
•
Port Utilization %—The percentage of data that is transferred (transmitted over the NIC port).
If the port is running in full duplex mode, Port Utilization % is the higher of TX Utilization %
and RX Utilization %. If the port is running in half duplex mode, Port Utilization % is the sum
of TX Utilization % and RX Utilization %.
Network Port Inventory
•
Port Configuration
◦
Displays the name of the NIC adapter
◦
Displays the name of the port (on the base board or upgrade module)
◦
Displays the media access control (MAC) address of the NIC port
◦
Displays the IP address of the NIC port
◦
Displays the maximum speed (in MB/s) of the NIC port
◦
Provides the NIC teaming configuration if the server is configured with NIC teaming
