Network Communications

The following items are covered in this section:

■Ethernet Network Structure

■Network Interface Controller (NIC)-Based Alerts

■Wake-On-Lan (WOL) Support

■Interpreting the Network Status Lights

■Disabling the Autosensing Capabilities

■Installing Network Drivers

This section provides information about Ethernet networks and the

hardware connectors and software device drivers that allow you to

access an Ethernet network. Access to a computer network

immediately increases your productivity potential. Once the network

connection is active, you can share resources, such as a printer,

exchange information from computer to computer, and run common

software programs.

The computer comes network-ready, which means that it has an

integrated network controller and network device drivers already

loaded onto the computer hard drive. The computer is ready to make

the network connection.

elements:

Network Communications

NIC-Based Alerts

Some NICs feature Alerting Capabilities, which allow a system

administrator to monitor the computer over the network remotely. The

computer can send hardware and operating system alerts over the

network before the operating system is loaded, while the operating

system is loaded, while the computer is in low power states, and when

the computer is powered off. Depending on the NIC model, these

alerts may include:

■System BIOS hang

■Operating system hang

■Processor missing

■Operating temperature exceeded

■Chassis intrusion

■Watchdog

■Heartbeat monitoring

✎NICs featuring Alerting Capabilities comply with Alert Standard

Format (ASF) specification 1.0. RMCP events are not supported due

to lack of security in the ASF 1.0 specification.

NIC-Based Alerts are enabled and configured by installing the

ASF 1.0 agents for the NIC you are using. These are available at

http://www.hp.com. ASF alerts can also be enabled and configured

using DMI or CIM.

Wake-On-LAN Support (WOL)

Wake-On-Lan (WOL) can be enabled and disabled in Windows 2000

and Windows XP.

To enable or disable Wake-On-Lan:

Windows 2000

1. Select Start > Settings > Control Panel.

2. Double-click Network Dial-up Connections.

1–4 www.hp.com Network & Internet Communications Guide

Network Communications

3. Double-click Local Area Connection.

4. Click Properties.

5. Click Configure.

6. Click the Power Management tab, then select or clear the check

box to Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby.

Windows XP

1. Select Start > Control Panel.

2. Double-click Network Connections.

3. Double-click Local Area Connection.

4. Click Properties.

5. Click Configure.

6. Click the Power Management tab, then select or clear the check

box to Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby.

✎For more information on Wake-On-LAN, refer to the online Desktop

Management Guide or to the Remote Management Administrators

Guide. The Remote Management Administrators Guide is included

with the Remote Management Setup Utilities and is available on the

Support Software CD or at http://www.compaq.com.

✎For information on filtering out unintentional Wake-On-LAN events,

refer to any additional documentation provided for the NICs

advanced diagnostics/configuration utility.

Interpreting the Network Status Lights

Select Ethernet network interface controllers include network status

lights:

■Link light—illuminates when the system is physically connected

to an active network.

■Activity light—illuminates when the computer detects network

activity. When the system is connected to a highly used

network, the activity light will remain on almost constantly.

Network & Internet Communications Guide www.hp.com 1–5

Network Communications

■Operating Speed light—illuminates during 1000 Mbps or

100 Mbps operation. The color of the light identifies the

operating speed.

Some NICs include only two network status lights where link

(light on) and activity (light blinking) are indicated by one light and

1000-Mbps or 100-Mbps operation is indicated by the second light.

The integrated NIC has two network status lights on the NIC

connector:

■Link/Activity light—Illuminates green when physically linked to

the network and blinks on and off to indicate network activity.

■Operating Speed light—Illuminates green when operating at

1000 Mbps, yellow when operating at 100 Mbps, and is not

illuminated when operating at 10 Mbps.

Disabling 802.3u Auto-Negotiation Capabilities

Auto-Negotiation NICs automatically determine the maximum

network operating speed and duplex capabilities of the attached

network and configure themselves on the highest common

combination. The computer begins Auto-Negotiation whenever it

obtains a valid network link, or when the NIC driver is loaded.

In addition to determining the network operating speed, the computer

determines if full-duplex is supported. Full-duplex systems can

transmit and receive information on the network simultaneously.

Half-duplex systems cannot transmit and receive simultaneously.

If necessary, you can disable the Auto-Negotiation capabilities and

force the system to operate in one mode only.

Windows 2000

1. Select Start > Settings > Control Panel.

2. Double-click Network Connections.

3. Double-click Local Area Connection.

4. Click Properties.

5. Click Configure.

6. Click the Advanced tab.

7. Select Link Speed/Duplex Mode in the Property list box.

8. Change the speed and duplex values to the appropriate values,

depending on the capabilities of the network.

9. Click OK. You may be prompted to restart the computer for the

changes to take effect.

Windows XP

1. Select Start > Control Panel.

2. Double-click Network Connections.

3. Double-click Local Area Connection.

4. Click Properties.

5. Click Configure.

6. Click the Advanced tab.

7. Select Link Speed & Duplex in the Property list box.

8. Change the speed and duplex values to the appropriate values,

depending on the capabilities of the network.

9. Click OK. You may be prompted to restart the computer for the

changes to take effect.

Refer to the documentation provided with the network controller for

additional information.

✎100Base-TX and 1000Base-Tx operation requires the use of Category

5 UTP cable with an RJ-45 network connection.
