Description Francisco Garcia 2018-02-14 14:11:23 UTC
Description of problem:

RHV Manager web UI reports virtio nics as being '1000Mbps'. This leads to confusion as user might incorrectly assume that is the maximum performance of a virtio nic. 

This is reported in RHV 4.2 in:

Compute > Virtual Machines > example-vm > Network interfaces > General

Plugged:        Plugged
Network Name:   ovirtmgmt
Profile Name:   ovirtmgmt
QoS Name:       N/A
Link State:     Up
Type:           VirtIO
MAC:            00:1a:4a:16:01:00
Speed (Mbps):   1000
Port Mirroring: Disabled


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Any RHV version reporting virtio interfaces in WebUI.

It is important to note that all vNIC speeds are "decorative" at best. Still, if we keep reporting a speed, it makes sense to make it a more modern value of 10 Gbps.

According to Amnon, with bug 1545270, this would be the case for in-windows reported speed.

Too boring to track until 4.3.
