NH82546GB - Baking Requirements?

VelATX

NH82546GB is a moisture sensitive ethernet IC controller. (https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/4965/intel-82546gb-gigabit-ethernet-controller.html) The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) is 3. The IC must be baked prior to being placed on a board. How long do I need to bake the part?

The only thing I could find on Intel's website is this document, which says the bake time is 12 hours, but the document was authored by Altera, prior to their acquisition by Intel.

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/support/reliability/msl/msl-baking-instruction.pdf 

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
