OVERVIEW
Improve network response time and reduce support costs with this easy-to-install desktop adapter. With built-in advanced management capabilities, such
as Wake on LAN and Alert on LAN, the Intel PRO/100+ Management Adapter delivers industry-leading performance and reliability.
Note: Alert on LAN technology is not supported on all Compaq platforms.
ADVANCED MANAGEMENT CAPABIL ITIES
Remote Management
The Intel PRO/100+ Management Adapter NIC allows for greater network manageability by featuring support for the latest Wired for Management (WfM)
2.0 specification. This adapter also provides advanced management features like Wake on LAN for remote PC Wake-up, Alert on LAN (AoL)
monitoring of the PC, and the pre-installed PRO/100 Boot Agent for OS deployment and upgrades.
Wake on LAN (WoL) and Desktop Management Interface (DMI) 2.0
Lowers cost of ownership by allowing remote power-up and upgrade of the PC from a sleep state during non-work hours
Alert on LAN Hardwa re Support
Allows your PC to proactively inform a management workstation when there is a problem with the PC, such as boot failure, overheating, unauthorized
tampering or even component theft
Note: Also requires Intel 810, 810e, 820 and future Intel Chipsets, HP Openview, and appropriate client and Server driver agents.
Plug and Play
Fully compliant with the 2.2 PCI specification, allowing for easy configuration and installation
Pre-installed PRO/100 Boot Agent
Embedded Boot ROM enables a network administrator to upgrade or install new software onto systems from a remote location. Because the Boot ROM is
embedded, businesses save the time and money that they would otherwise spend qualifying, purchasing and installing Boot ROM chips into Boot ROM
sockets.
