Starting the SCSISelect utility program (some models) Complete the following steps to start the SCSISelect utility program: 1. Turn on the computer. 2. When the > prompt appears, press Ctrl+A. If you have set an administrator password, you are prompted to type the password. 3. Use the arrow keys to make your selection. 4. When the prompt Would you like to configure the SCSI controller or run the SCSI disk utility? appears, make your selection and press Enter. 5. Use the arrow keys to make your selection. 6. Follow the instructions on the screen to change the settings of the selected items; then, press Enter. Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller The Ethernet controller is integrated on the system board. It provides an interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provides full duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the network. If the Ethernet port in the computer supports auto-negotiation, the controller detects the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and automatically operates at that rate and mode. The Ethernet controller supports optional modes, such as teaming, priority packets, load balancing, fault tolerance, and virtual LANs, which provide better performance, security, and throughput. These modes apply to the integrated Ethernet controller and to controllers on supported Ethernet adapters. You do not need to set any jumpers or configure the controller. However, you must install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller. For device drivers and information about configuring your Gigabit Ethernet controller, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/. Chapter 3. Installing software 47

Configuring
the
Gigabit
Ethernet
controller
The
Ethernet
controller
is
integrated
on
the
system
board.
It
provides
an
interface
for
connecting
to
a
10-Mbps,
100-Mbps,
or
1-Gbps
network
and
provides
full
duplex
(FDX)
capability,
which
enables
simultaneous
transmission
and
reception
of
data
on
the
network.
If
the
Ethernet
port
in
the
computer
supports
auto-negotiation,
the
controller
detects
the
data-transfer
rate
(10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX,
or
1000BASE-T)
and
duplex
mode
(full-duplex
or
half-duplex)
of
the
network
and
automatically
operates
at
that
rate
and
mode.
The
Ethernet
controller
supports
optional
modes,
such
as
teaming,
priority
packets,
load
balancing,
fault
tolerance,
and
virtual
LANs,
which
provide
better
performance,
security,
and
throughput.
These
modes
apply
to
the
integrated
Ethernet
controller
and
to
controllers
on
supported
Ethernet
adapters.
You
do
not
need
to
set
any
jumpers
or
configure
the
controller.
However,
you
must
install
a
device
driver
to
enable
the
operating
system
to
address
the
controller.
For
device
drivers
and
information
about
configuring
your
Gigabit
Ethernet
controller,
