Facilidade de uso
or LOM represents a single, wired connection to network hardware
as follows:
•
In a Blade Virtual Connect environment, the NIC is configured in
Flex-10 mode. Each port is logically divided into up to four
individual network devices which share the total bandwidth of the
network connection. For more information about HP Virtual
Connect, see http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/blades/
virtualconnect/index.html.
•
In other environments, the NIC is configured as a single network
device per port.
Function
A PCIe function. Each function can be configured by HP-UX as a single
device. In a Flex-10 environment, HP-UX can configure a dual-ported
NIC with up to 8 PCIe functions (up to four per port).
LOM
LAN on motherboard. A chip or chipset capable of network connections
that has been embedded directly on the motherboard of a server. For
example, server blades include LOMs that are dual-port 1 or 10
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
mezzanine adapter
Also known as a daughterboard or daughtercard. Plugs directly into
the motherboard or another plug-in adapter to extend functionality. It
usually fits on top of and parallel to the board or adapter it plugs into.
NIC
Network Interface Card. A function or device that is configured as a
network or LAN device.
PCIe
Peripheral Component Interconnect Express. A computer expansion
bus standard that replaces older (such as PCI) bus standards to
improvements such as a higher maximum system bus throughput, a
smaller physical footprint, better performance scaling for bus devices,
more detailed error detection and reporting, and native hot-plug
functionality. More recent revisions of the PCIe standard support
hardware I/O virtualization.
Port
The physical connection to the network. The NIC typically has two
physical connections; this configuration is often described as
“dual-ported.”
1.2 Features
The iexgbe driver is a PCIe 10 Gigabit Ethernet driver that can support the standup, mezzanine,
and LAN on motherboard (LOM) technologies for a variety of platforms. It supports the HP Virtual
Connect Flex-10 interface on server blade platforms. Before HP Virtual Connect was introduced,
only two interconnect choices were available for connecting server blades to a network —
passthrough devices and switches. Passthrough devices are simple but require too many cumbersome
cables and create complexity. Blade switches reduce the number of cables but add more
management responsibilities for LAN and SAN administrators. In both cases, multiple people are
needed to perform very simple server tasks. Only HP offers the third choice — HP Virtual Connect
— which reduces cables without adding switches to manage and provides many other advantages.

Other notable features provided by the iexgbe driver include:
•
Transmit Checksum Offload (CKO) and TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) for IPv4
•
Receive CKO for IPv4
•
Flex-10 bandwidth allocation
