Intel Network Adapter Driver 23.4 for Server 2012

Installs base drivers, Intel PROSet for Windows Device Manager, advanced networking services for teaming and VLANs (ANS) for Intel Network Adapters for Windows Server 2012.

SW Release 23.4 resolves a potential packet data pointer issue that could occur when using Intel Ethernet 700 Series products with certain Intel Ethernet device drivers on Windows operating systems that are using “Jumbo Packet” feature with “Receive Side Coalescing” (RSC) feature.

The issue may lead to a data mismatch between what came in on off wire (RX port) from remote sender and what is transferred up the OS/system stack to receiver (that is, application). While most applications apply their own additional forms of data integrity checking, some may exist that don't and so may be exposed to potential data integrity issues.

Note: By default, “Jumbo Packet” feature is disabled (off) in Intel Windows drivers.

Changes:

- Removal of support (end of life) for Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Nano Server.
- Support for Minihelp property in Intel PROSet for Microsoft Windows PowerShell software.

About Ethernet Drivers:

Windows platforms generally apply a generic driver that allows motherboards to recognize the Ethernet component.

However, in order to make use of all network card (adapter) features, you must install a proper LAN driver that enables the hardware. This task enables systems to connect to a network, as well as collect all component characteristics such as manufacturer and chipset.

If you intend to update the driver version, know that this process can add support for new OSes, fix different compatibility problems, resolve related errors encountered during the product's lifetime, as well as include various other changes.

When it comes to the actual installation procedure, we should note that most producers try to make it as easy as possible, so following the steps should be a breeze: just get the downloadable package, run the setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.

There is a chance that other OSes could also be suitable, but it is not advisable that you install this release on platforms other than the specified ones. Remember to perform a system reboot once done, to allow all changes to take effect properly.

Therefore, if you wish to apply this version, click on the download button and enable your network card. To stay up to speed with the latest updates, check back with our website as often as possible.
