The figure below is an example of the displayed Port Protocol sheet for a dual port VPI adapter
card.
Step 3. In this step, you can perform the following functions:
• Choose HW Defaults option. If you choose the HW Defaults option, the port protocols will be deter-
mine according to the NIC’s hardware default values.
• Choose the desired port protocol for the available port(s). If you choose IB or ETH, both ends of the
connection must be of the same type (IB or ETH).
• Enable Auto Sensing by checking the AUTO checkbox. If the NIC does not support Auto Sensing,
the AUTO option will be grayed out.
If you choose AUTO, Current Setting will indicate the actual port settings: IB or ETH.
