Beniamino Galvani 2017-06-29 16:37:18 UTC Doc Text Previously it was not possible to set the number of virtual functions
(VF) to be created for PCI physical devices that support single-root
I/O virtualization (SR-IOV).

With this update, NetworkManager supports creating VFs for SR-IOV
devices. The number of VFs can be specified using the 'sriov-num-vfs'
option in a device section in the NetworkManager configuration
file. After VFs are created, connection profiles can be activated by
NetworkManager on them. Note that some properties of a VF interface as
the MTU can only be set to values compatible with the one set on the
physical interface.

*NetworkManager* now supports VFs for SR-IOV devices

With this update, the *NetworkManager* system service supports creating virtual functions (VFs) for Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) PCI devices. The number of VFs can be specified using the "sriov-num-vfs" option in the device section of the *NetworkManager* configuration file. After VFs are created, *NetworkManager* can activate connection profiles on them.

Note that some properties of a VF interface, such as the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), can only be set to values compatible with those that are set on the physical interface.
Doc Type Release Note Enhancement
