NIC.NICConfig.LnkSpeed (Read or Write)
Description
Selector for link speed(s) to be advertised to link partner for boot operations.  Implementations
should only include supported link speeds.  Existing implementations may remain unchanged, new
implementations should not use those speeds listed as deprecated but use the new speeds that have
been added that infer what modulation scheme is in use, NRZ or PAM4.  New implementations
should transition to allow multiple speeds to be selected instead of just one in a simple enumeration
scheme.

NIC.NICConfig.LnkSpeedConfig (Read Only)
Description
Manual Link Speed configuration form for Link speed(s) to be advertised to link partner for boot protocol
operations and possibly including Wake On LAN and shared LOM management features if separate
Vaux link speed control is not supported. Implementations should only include supported link speeds.
Existing implementations may continue to use attribute defined in Mapping spec version A12 , new
implementations should not use those speeds listed as deprecated but use the new speeds that have
been added that infer what modulation scheme is in use, NRZ or PAM4. New implementations should
transition to allow multiple speeds to be selected instead of just one in a simple enumeration scheme.
NOTE: Enum attributes listed under this form should be implemented as checkbox in the HII browser.
NOTE: This setting is only valid when LnkSpeedMethod is set to Manual and should be greyed out when
set to Auto. Whether or not they are greyed-out, this should represent the link speeds that are currently
being advertised to the link partner.
