Introduction; Hardware Requirements - Chelsio Communications Terminator Series Installation And User Manual

Chapter IV. iWARP (RDMA)

Introduction

Chelsio's Terminator engine implements a feature rich RDMA implementation which adheres to
the IETF standards with optional markers and MPA CRC-32C.
The iWARP RDMA operation benefits from the virtualization, traffic management and QoS
mechanisms provided by Terminator engine. It is possible to ACL process iWARP RDMA packets.
It is also possible to rate control the iWARP traffic on a per-connection or per-class basis, and to
give higher priority to QPs that implement distributed locking mechanisms. The iWARP operation
also benefits from the high performance and low latency TCP implementation in the offload
engine.
