Wake on LAN

Wake on LAN, a hardware feature that enables the remote power on of

computers through special network packets, is enabled in core PCI/PCI-X slots one and two.

Ropes

Ropes is an HP-proprietary, custom bus interface. It clocks data packets across

long-length nets using source synchronous clocking schemes. There are eighteen signals bundled
per Ropes group, of which there are a total of 16 in the rx3600. Each group is capable of 0.5GB/s
peak bandwidth.

Table 1-1 (page 27)

and

Table 1-2 (page 28)

display the association of the Ropes

group(s) to the PCI slot / HBA to which they connect.
