Ethernet Port Boot Order
The order in which the BIOS detects the Ethernet ports during server boot is listed below.
Note - You can change the boot priority using the Boot Device Priority screen available in the
Boot menu of the BIOS Setup Utility.
1. NET 0
2. NET 1
3. NET 2
4. NET 3
Ethernet Port Device Naming
Note - Naming used by the interfaces might vary from that listed below depending on which
devices are installed in the system.
The device naming for the Ethernet interfaces is reported differently by different interfaces and
operating systems. The following table shows BIOS (physical) and operating system (logical)
naming conventions used for each interface. These naming conventions might vary depending
on conventions of your operating system and which devices are installed in the server.
Port BIOS Solaris Linux Windows (example default
names, see note below)
Net 0 3A00 ixgbe 0 eth0 Ethernet
Net 1 3A01 ixgbe 1 eth1 Ethernet 2
Net 2 8200 ixgbe 2 eth2 Ethernet 3
Net 3 8201 ixgbe 3 eth3 Ethernet 4
Note - For Windows, port names like Ethernet, Ethernet 2, Ethernet 3, and Ethernet 4 are used
by default. However, actual port naming is based on the order of enumeration, typically during
operating system installation. Additionally, Windows allows you to rename the ports to meet
application-specific needs.
