Multifunction Networking

The embedded multifunction NC373i adapters combine standard Gigabit Ethernet networking, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE), iSCSI boot and optional accelerated iSCSI into a single adapter.

  • TOE moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other activities. With TOE, network communications are improved, and server efficiency is increased. The NC373i offers TOE for Microsoft® Windows 2000 and 2003 environments.
  • The iSCSI network boot (iSCSI boot) allows the BL460c to boot from a remote operating system (OS) image located on a storage area network (SAN). The BL460c uses an iSCSI firmware image (iSCSI boot option ROM) making the remote disk drive appear as a local, bootable C: drive. The BL460c is configured to connect to and boot from the iSCSI target disk on the network and download the OS image from the iSCSI target disk. The iSCSI boot option ROM is supplied by HP at no cost. The additional cost and mezzanine slot usage of an add-in iSCSI HBA card is not required. Additionally, the HP iSCSI boot solution includes scripts to significantly simplify the installation process.

I/O Expansion Slots Two I/O expansion mezzanine slots (one x8 and one x4)

Integrated Manageability HP ProLiant Onboard Administrator (includes but not limited to functionality in Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) Standard Blade Edition (integrated on motherboard)
