NIC Advanced Properties
NICs typically have many advanced properties. These properties can be viewed using the following steps:
1. Open the Device Manager (you can do this by running the command �devmgmt.msc�
2. Expand the Network adapters item
3. Double-click on a network adapter to open the Properties page
4. Click the Advanced tab
Most users never adjust these parameters, but it may beneficial to adjust them for some applications.  Also note that not all network cards have the same properties available to adjust.  Wireless NICs in particular have additional adjustable properties.
For this discussion, choose one of the NIC properties and fully describe what it does, the available options, and when each option might be useful. You must choose a different piece of information than presented by your colleagues (if repeated, the latter poster will not earn full credit). Also note that properties that differ only in IPv4 vs IPv6 are considered the same for this discussion.
