1. Introduction
This document is intended to provide users of the Intel ® Carrier Grade Server TIGI2U and the
Intel ® IP Network Server NSI2U with a list of the operating systems, adapter cards, and
peripherals tested by Intel on this server platform. The Intel ® Carrier Grade Server TIGI2U and
the Intel ® IP Network Server NSI2U are both integrated using the Intel ® Server Board
SE7520JR2.
This document will continue to be updated as new adapters, peripherals, and operating systems
are tested or until the Intel
® Carrier Grade Server TIGI2U and the Intel ® IP Network Server
NSI2U are no longer in production. Each new release of the document will present updated
information as well as continue to provide the information from previous releases.
The adapters and peripherals specified in this document may or may not have been tested on
all available board/riser combinations that make up the TIGI2U and NSI2U product family. Intel
will provide support for the adapters and peripherals listed when used within this family of
products.
The Intel ® Carrier Grade Server TIGI2U and the Intel ® IP Network Server NSI2U product
families consists of the following server building blocks and integrated systems:

1.1 Test Overview
Testing performed on the Intel® Carrier Grade Server TIGI2U and the Intel® IP Network Server
NSI2U is divided under two separate categories:
• Basic Operating System Installation Testing
• Adapter / Peripheral Compatibility testing, and System Stress Testing.
1.1.1 Basic Installation Testing
Basic installation testing is performed with each supported operating system. Basic installation
testing validates that the server board can install the operating system and that the base
hardware feature set is functional. A small set of peripherals is used for installation purposes
only. No add-in adapter cards are tested. Testing includes network connectivity and running of
proprietary and industry standard test suites.
