Ethernet
Port Device and Driver Naming
The server supports four 10/100/1000BASE-T
Gigabit Ethernet ports
on the rear of the chassis.
The
device naming for the Ethernet interfaces is reported differently
by different interfaces and operating systems. See the table below
for the logical (operating system) and physical (BIOS) naming conventions
used for each interface.
