Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) provides a mechanism to bypass the host system hypervisor in virtual
environments providing near metal performance and server efficiency. SR-IOV provides mechanism to create
multiple Virtual Functions (VFs) to share single PCIe resources. The device is capable of SR-IOV, and requires
Server BIOS support, controller firmware, and OS support.
For overall improved system response, this adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques including:
TCP/IP, UDP checksum offload (TCO) moves the TCP and IP checksum offloading from the CPU to the network
adapter. Large send offload (LSO) or TCP segmentation offload (TSO) allows the TCP segmentation to be
handled by the adapter rather than the CPU.
Minimize the impact of overlay networking on host performance with tunnel offload support for VXLAN
and NVGRE. By offloading packet processing to adapters, customers can use overlay networking to increase
VM migration flexibility and virtualized overlay networks with minimal impact to performance. HPE Tunnel
Offloading increases I/O throughput, reduces CPU utilization, and lowers power consumption. Tunnel Offload
supports VMware's VXLAN and Microsoft's NVGRE solutions.
Normally the TCP Checksum is computed by the protocol stack. Segmentation Offload is technique for
increasing outbound throughput of high-bandwidth network connections by reducing CPU overhead. The
technique is also called TCP segmentation offload (TSO) when applied to TCP, or generic segmentation offload
(GSO).
IPv6 uses 128-bit addressing allowing for more devices and users on the internet. IPv4 supported 32-bit
addressing.
Synchronization of system clocks throughout a network, achieving clock accuracy in the sub-microsecond
range, making it suitable for measurement and control systems.
RSS resolves the single-processor bottleneck by allowing the receive side network load from a network adapter
to be shared across multiple processors. RSS enables packet receive-processing to scale with the number of
available processors.
