[. . . ] Intel PROSet For Windows* Device Manager WMI Provider User‟s Guide White Paper Revision 1. 7 White Paper - Intel PROSet for Windows* Device Manager WMI User‟s Guide Introduction Intel® PROSet for Windows* Device Manager deploys Network Configuration Services version 2. 0, an easy to use solution for deploying and managing all Intel end-station networking technologies using industry standard methods. The NCS2 architecture works closely with the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service to provide remote management of Intel network devices. This document describes the WMI classes and providers supplied by Intel® PROSet for Windows* Device Manager. This document is divided into several sections Technology overview – an overview of WMI technology.

Negotiated Link Width specifies the negotiated link width of the bus. Only PCI-Express adapters will have a non zero value. 0 1 2 4 Unknown x1 x2 x4 NetworkAddresses OriginalDisplayName PartNumber PCIDeviceID PermanentAddress PHYDevice string[ ] string string string string uint16 This is an inherited property; refer to parent class CIM definition. If teaming is enabled on this adapter OriginalDisplayName will contain the original display name of the adapter. PartNumber is the NIC's PBA manufacturing part number. This is an inherited property; refer to parent class CIM definition. PHYDevice indicates the particular PHY used on this NIC. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 50 60 70 No PHY detected Intel 82553 (PHY 100) A or B step Intel 82553 (PHY 100) C step Intel 82503 10Mps National DP83840A Seeq 80C240 - 100BASE-T4 Seeq 80C24 - 10Mps Intel 82555 100Base-TX PHY Microlinear 10Mps Level One 10Mbps National DP83840 100Base-TX, C step ICS 100Base-TX PHY Gilad Kinnereth Kinnereth Plus Other Unknown Intel 82562 EH Phoneline PLC Intel 82562 ET 100 Base-TX PHY Intel 82562 EM 100 Base-TX PHY 0 1 2 3 A B C D PortNumber uint16 PortNumber indicates the port number on PCIe Quad port adapters. Any other value indicates this field is not applicable to the adapter. SlotID Speed Status string uint64 string SlotID field of the System Slot structure provides a mechanism to correlate the physical attributes of the slot to its logical access method.

No other properties are supported. There are no user modifiable properties. Methods Method GetAdapterFanStatus GetNDISVersion Returns uint32 uint32 Parameters [OUT] uint32 dwAdapterStatus [OUT] uint32 dwMajorVersion dwMinorVersion [OUT] uint32 AutoPowerSaveEnabled ReduceSpeedOnPowerDown SmartPowerDown SavePowerNowEnabled EnhancedASPMPowerSaver ACBSMode LinkSpeedBatterySaver [IN] uint32 WakeFromPoweroff WakeOnLink WakeOnMagicPacket WakeOnDirectedPacket Detail Returns status of adapter fans. This method can be used to get the NDIS version Detects any optional power usage settings (e. g. , power usage for standby, battery operation, etc. ). For all return uint32 values: 0 = Off 1 = On GetPowerUsageOptions uint32 GetWakeOnLanPowerOptions uint32 GetWakeOnLanPowerOptions returns WakeOnLan power settings. For example, information about wakeonlink, wakeonmagicpacket etc. . If an adapter does not support this feature, the returned structure will be empty. Values to pass in: 0 = Off 1 = On IdentifyAdapter uint32 [IN] uint16 nSeconds Identifies adapter by flashing the light on the adapter for a few seconds. This method will only work for physical adapters. This method can be used to check if iSCSI is enabled on that adapter. iSCSIStatus 0 – Unavailable 1 – Disabled 2 – Primary 3 - Secondary IsISCSIEnabled uint32 [OUT] uint32 iSCSIStatus IsiSCSISupported uint32 [OUT] boolean bIsiSCSIOS bIsISCSIPatch bIsISCSIHotFix [OUT] boolean bIsSetRequired This method can be used to check if iSCSI is supported by the OS and iSCSI patch and hot fix are installed. The “hot fix” is also known as the Microsoft iSCSI initiator. [. . . ] This only controls whether the adapter can be set to a Primary, Secondary or Disabled state. 45 White Paper - Intel PROSet for Windows* Device Manager WMI User‟s Guide Manipulating iSCSI Parameters There are several settings applicable to iSCSI which can be manipulated through WMI. To locate these parameters, use the table below to find the name of the class, the type of parameter, and guidelines for setting them. Each iSCSI enabled adapter will have its own settings.

Some parameters which contain security information will be intentionally obscured upon reading their value. Examples are passwords where the user will only see “*” characters for values. 46 White Paper - Intel PROSet for Windows* Device Manager WMI User‟s Guide Errata The following is information which may be relevant to viewing or changing a configuration in Intel® PROSet for Windows* Device Manager.
