I/O Virtualization Screen
I/O virtualization technology enables one physical adapter card to appear as multiple virtual network
interface cards (NICs). Virtual NICs function as conventional NICs and are designed to be compatible with
existing operating systems, Hypervisors, and applications. Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) is a
sub-specification that allows a PCI Express device to appear to be multiple separate physical PCIe devices.
When you display the I/O Virtualization screen, the format is similar to the sample shown above. Highlight
the option you wish to change and press
<Enter>
to display the available settings. Select the appropriate
setting and press
<Enter>
again to accept the highlighted value.
