Chapter XVI. Offload Multi-Adapter Failover (MAFO)

Introduction

Chelsio's adapters offer a complete suite of high reliability features, including adapter-to-adapter
failover. The patented offload Multi-Adapter Failover (MAFO) feature ensures all offloaded traffic
continue operating seamless in the face of port failure.
MAFO allows aggregating network interfaces across multiple adapters into a single logical bonded
interface, providing effective fault tolerance.
The traffic running over the bonded interface can be fully offloaded to the adapter, thus freeing
the CPU from TCP/IP overhead.
Portions of this software are covered under US Patent,
Important
migration for full-offload network interface devices: US 8346919 B1
Use of the covered technology is strictly limited to Chelsio ASIC-based
soutions.
