With this Fast Ethernet upgrade module and Gigabit upgrade modules for the NC3131, Compaq is the first to introduce an industry-standard, scaleable transition path from Ethernet to Fast Ethernet to Bonded Fast Ethernet to Gigabit. The Compaq NC3132 Fast Ethernet Module provides two additional 10/100Base-TX ports for the NC3131 Fast Ethernet NIC. The upgrade module provides a scaleable transition path from Ethernet to Fast Ethernet to Bonded Fast Ethernet. The NC3132 contributes additional redundancy and bandwidth to the server without having to change the NIC or the operating system driver. The NC3132 plugs into the NC3131 Fast Ethernet NIC without requiring any tools. Fully compliant with the 2.1 PCI specification, the NC3132 upgrade module automatically configures its I/O address and interrupt settings for easy installation. The NC3132 uses the same operating system drivers as the NC3131 and no driver change is required when moving from 10 to 100 Mbps. In addition, these same drivers can be used for all Compaq Intel-based 10 or 100 Mbps NICs. Common drivers provide consistency, easy management, and support to save money and time. The NC3132 senses for 10 or 100 Mbps and half or full duplex and automatically configures to the highest network connection speed between the NIC and hub or switch port. The NC3132 supports Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) and Cisco's Fast EtherChannel (FEC). ALB provides both failover support and balances transmit traffic across NICs for increased performance. For even higher performance, Cisco's Fast EtherChannel provides port failover and balances transmit and receive traffic across NICs. The NC3132 uses bus-mastering technology to maximize throughput and minimize CPU utilization. Compaq's SmartStart configuration utility includes setup support for the NC3132 so that it can be configured as part of the SmartStart configuration process in Compaq servers. Compaq Insight Manager can recognize the NC3132 individually or in port bonded teams, and can collect and report SNMP statistics on NIC events. The Compaq Network Management System (CNMS) can also collect and report SNMP statistics on the NC3132.
