Abstract: The system includes an adapter processor and control memory device included in the adapter. A device is provided for establishing transmit and receive control registers in the control memory. A device is used for receiving data cells from the network for storage as frames on received ready lists in system memory. A device is incorporated for establishing a transmit ready queue (TRQ) in the control memory. Transmit ready queue (TRQ) identifies frames for transmission on a received ready list. A device is provided for establishing in system memory a transmit complete list (TCL). A device is further included for generating an interrupt to the device driver indicating frame transmission complete and updating the TCL.
