Using this feature lets you divide each physical port into up to four partitions, configured to support one of the following PCI function types: NIC, FCoE, or iSCSI.

  • Page 356: Quality Of Service

    Each physical port on a QLogic adapter can send and receive data at up to 10Gbps in both directions at the same time. When the physical port is partitioned into four partitions, the port bandwidth is divided between each port partition according to traffic demands.

    The ability to view eSwitch statistics depends on your operating environment and management tool. The QLogic drivers download the VM MAC addresses to the firmware. This enables the firmware and hardware to switch the packets destined for VMs on the host.
