Intel(R) I/O Acceleration Technology ==================================== Intel I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel(R) I/OAT) is a new Intel platform network technology that accelerates, optimizes and seamlessly scales enterprise servers on Microsoft Windows Server* and Linux* operating systems. Acceleration moves networking data to applications faster. Optimization allows you to increase the load on your servers without increasing power consumption. Seamless multiple port scaling gives you increased networking throughput from teaming along with reliable server and application availability. Intel I/OAT requires the following to operate on Microsoft Windows Operating Systems: - A server chipset and BIOS that are Intel I/OAT capable - Microsoft Windows Server 2008 or - Microsoft Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 or 2 installed - The Scalable Networking Pack from Microsoft (this is installed as part of Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2008) - An adapter or network connection that is Intel I/OAT-capable - The RSS advanced setting must be enabled - Under TCP/IP Offloading Options, both Offload Receive IP Checksum and Offload Receive TCP Checksum must be enabled.
