he UCS-VIC-M82-8P is a virtual interface card (VIC) that is used in the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS). This card provides 8 ports for network connectivity and is compatible with a wide range of operating systems and virtualization environments.
Deployment of the VIC requires an understanding of the UCS infrastructure, including the fabric interconnects, servers, and storage arrays. Once the VIC is installed, it is managed through the UCS Manager, which provides a single point of management for all elements in the UCS environment.
The VIC supports advanced network features such as Quality of Service (QoS), network security, and network performance optimization. The card uses advanced technologies such as SR-IOV, which provides direct access to physical network adapters, and virtual NICs (vNICs), which allows multiple virtual machines to share a single network adapter.
To ensure optimal network performance, administrators can configure the VIC with different settings, such as setting the number of vNICs, adjusting the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size, and enabling features such as flow control and jumbo frames. The VIC also supports network redundancy and load balancing, which can be configured to ensure high availability and reliability of the network infrastructure.
Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) SupportThe UCS-VIC-M82-8P Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Card 8 Ports Network Adapter provides support for Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) as well as for traditional Ethernet networking. This allows for consolidation of both storage and networking traffic over a single unified fabric, reducing the need for multiple separate networks and cabling.
FCoE provides a high-speed, low latency, and lossless communication path for storage traffic, allowing for efficient utilization of network bandwidth. This results in improved performance and reduced costs by reducing the number of required network adapters and cabling.
In addition to FCoE support, the UCS-VIC-M82-8P card also provides virtualized network interface capabilities, enabling the creation of multiple virtual network interfaces on a single physical adapter. This allows for fine-grained network resource allocation, improving network utilization and flexibility.
Virtual Interface Card Models and their ComparisonVirtual Interface Cards (VICs) are network adapters designed for use with Cisco UCS (Unified Computing System) servers. They provide virtualized I/O for the servers, enabling multiple virtual NICs (network interface controllers) to be created within a single physical NIC. This allows administrators to configure multiple virtual NICs with different network settings, such as VLANs, traffic policies, and QoS settings, while still using a single physical NIC.
The UCS-VIC-M82-8P is a specific model of VIC offered by Cisco, with 8 ports and support for 10 Gbps Ethernet. It is a modular adapter that can be installed in a Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Server, providing network connectivity to the server. The VIC-M82-8P supports multiple virtual NICs (vNICs) and virtual HBA (host bus adapter) interfaces, allowing multiple virtual interfaces to be created within a single physical NIC.
Compared to other VIC models, the VIC-M82-8P offers several advantages. Its 8 ports provide increased network connectivity, and its 10 Gbps Ethernet support offers higher bandwidth for high-performance applications. The VIC-M82-8P also supports virtualized I/O, allowing administrators to create multiple virtual NICs and virtual HBAs with different network settings. This provides a flexible and efficient solution for managing network connectivity in a virtualized environment..
