Using Intel PROSet II

Intel PROSet II is an advanced configuration utility that lets you test Intel(R) PRO/100 network adapters and configure standard and advanced features. After you install the Intel(R) PRO/100 network adapter's Windows drivers, you can install PROSet II. (Note: When installing Windows NT 4.0 drivers, PROSet II is automatically installed.) When you restart your computer after installing PROSet II, you'll see two icons as shown below. Windows 95 users, see the note below.

PROSet II runs when you click the PROSet II tray icon or the Intel PROSet II icon in the Control Panel (shown below).

Control Panel Icon:       

The main PROSet II window is similar to the illustration below. To set advanced parameters, select the desired adapter in the left window and click the Advanced tab. To configure Teaming features (Adapter Fault Tolerance, Adaptive Load Balancing, Fast EtherChannel and 802.3ad), right click the desired adapter in the left window and follow the teaming wizard. See the PROSet II online help for additional information.

NOTE: A different version of PROSet will be installed on computers that have Windows 95 present. To install PROSet on computers that have Windows 95, run the Advanced Networking Setup utility. When you run this, the only option available for Windows 95 will be Intel PROSet.
