Using Desktop Management Interface (DMI) 2.0
The 3C905C NIC supports DMI 2.0 and 2.0s, which 
enables managed PCs and net PCs to report details about 
themselves and their peripheral devices across the network 
to a DMI 2.0-compliant management application. 
A network administrator can then use this information to 
configure and manage a client or server PC remotely.
For instructions on installing the 3Com DMI Agent, see 
Appendix C.
For more detailed information on DMI, go to the following
