Burst support.
32-bit Bus Master architecture with integrated DMA buffer
management.
Full duplex.
Magic Packet support.
Optional Boot PROM for disk-less node application.
Automatic port selection.
Flash Support
Disk-less node application. This enables booting from a server on the
network instead of from a system resource (hard disk, diskette drive
or a CD-ROM drive).
Virus Scan support via the Flash socket (not part of the HP LAN kit).
TCP/IP Boot Flash support (not part of the HP LAN kit).
External Start
Connector
RPO (when the PC is turned off) and RWU (when the PC is in sleep
mode) signals are supplied through this connector.
LAN Connection Status
LED (Light)
There is an LED on the rear of the HP LAN card which indicates the
LAN connection status as follows:
Off - when there is no autonegotiation response (for example, when
the LAN cable is not connected to the network HUB).
Blinking - during autonegotiation.
Green (ON) - the connection has passed the autonegotiation and a
link has been established between the HP LAN card and the network
HUB/Switch.
