The Intel® PRO/1000 MT Quad Port Server Adapter only uses the Boot Agent on the top two ports.
The Intel® PRO/1000 T Server and Intel® PRO/1000 F Server Adapters do not support Intel® Boot Agent. No flash chip is available for the empty socket.
Note: There is no after-market flash chip, at this time, which can be added to the Intel gigabit adapters. Additionally most motherboard implementations of Boot Agents do not include gigabit support at this time.
For additional information, please see IBAUTIL.EXE included on the CD and the Intel Boot Agent Web site.
Windows* RIS installs using Intel gigabit adapters require Microsoft* patches to their RIS software. Please see Microsoft article Q315074.
