Description
Advanced Network Features and Technologies
The 649869-001 HPE Ethernet 10GBps Dual Port 530FLR-SFP+ Adapter for G8 provides a range of advanced network features and technologies to enable high-performance and efficient networking.
One of the key features of the adapter is support for advanced packet processing technologies, such as large receive offload (LRO) and TCP segmentation offload (TSO), which enable the adapter to offload processing of network traffic from the CPU to the adapter. This feature reduces the workload on the CPU, freeing up resources for other tasks and improving overall system performance.
The adapter also supports multiple virtual functions (VFs), which enable the adapter to be partitioned into multiple virtual adapters. This feature provides flexibility for network deployments, allowing multiple virtual adapters to be assigned to different virtual machines or applications, and enabling efficient use of server resources.
Another key feature of the adapter is support for network virtualization technologies, such as virtual extensible LAN (VXLAN) and network virtualization using generic routing encapsulation (NVGRE). These technologies enable network administrators to create virtual networks that are independent of the underlying physical network infrastructure, providing flexibility and scalability for network deployments.
The adapter also supports quality of service (QoS) and bandwidth management features, which enable network administrators to prioritize and manage network traffic based on its importance. This feature ensures that critical applications receive the necessary network resources and that network bandwidth is used efficiently.
Network Virtualization
The 649869-001 HPE Ethernet 10GBps Dual Port 530FLR-SFP+ Adapter for G8 supports network virtualization technologies, such as Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE).
VXLAN and NVGRE enable network administrators to create virtual networks that are independent of the underlying physical network infrastructure, providing flexibility and scalability for network deployments. This virtualization technology allows multiple virtual networks to coexist on the same physical network infrastructure, enabling isolation of traffic, better security, and improved network management.
With VXLAN, a Layer 2 network is virtualized over an underlying Layer 3 network. VXLAN uses a 24-bit segment ID to identify virtual networks, allowing up to 16 million virtual networks to be created. The adapter supports VXLAN offload, which enables the adapter to offload VXLAN processing from the CPU to the adapter, freeing up CPU resources and improving overall system performance.
With NVGRE, a Layer 2 network is also virtualized over an underlying Layer 3 network, but it uses a different encapsulation method. NVGRE uses a 24-bit Tenant Network Identifier (TNI) to identify virtual networks, allowing up to 16 million virtual networks to be created. The adapter also supports NVGRE offload, which enables the adapter to offload NVGRE processing from the CPU to the adapter, freeing up CPU resources and improving overall system performance.
Deployment and Scalability
The 649869-001 HPE Ethernet 10GBps Dual Port 530FLR-SFP+ Adapter for G8 is designed for deployment in a wide range of network environments, from small-scale to large-scale data center deployments.
The adapter supports PCIe 2.0, which provides a high-speed, low-latency interface for connecting the adapter to the server. PCIe 2.0 also provides backward compatibility with PCIe 1.1, enabling the adapter to be used in servers that support PCIe 1.1.
The adapter also supports link aggregation, enabling multiple network connections to be combined into a single logical connection. This feature improves network performance, provides redundancy in case of a network failure, and simplifies network management.
The adapter supports jumbo frames, which allows for larger data payloads to be transmitted over the network. This feature can improve network performance for applications that require large data transfers, such as video streaming and data backup.
In addition, the adapter supports SFP+ transceivers, providing flexibility in connecting to different types of network infrastructure, including fiber optic and copper cabling. The adapter also supports the use of Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables, which provide a cost-effective and high-speed alternative to fiber optic cabling.
