Commonly used technologies for network cards
Ethernet power management
1. Ethernet power management: Ensures that devices automatically power off when not in use, saving energy and extending device life.
2. Dynamic voltage adjustment: Adjust voltage in real time according to equipment needs to improve energy efficiency and performance.
3. Energy-saving mode: Reduce device power consumption by limiting the transmission rate and frame size.
4. Scheduled shutdown function: Set a specific time to automatically shut down the device to facilitate user management.
5. Power supply monitoring and warning: monitor power supply status in real time, detect problems and provide early warning information.
6. Supported power management protocols: Follow IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab and other standards to ensure compatibility.
PXE support
1. PXE (Preboot Execution Environment): Pre-start execution environment, which is a network boot technology.
2. PXE support: Computer hardware or software supports booting the operating system from the network.
3. No BIOS required: PXE boot does not require entering BIOS settings when booting.
4. Flexibility: PXE support makes it easy to deploy and configure computers in the network.
5. Save time: Users do not need to wait for the computer to boot from the hard disk, saving boot time.
6. Remote management: With PXE support, administrators can install and configure the operating system remotely.
7. Unattended: PXE support allows the computer to automatically complete the startup process unattended.
8. Security: PXE support can improve system security and prevent the spread of malware.
9. Support multiple operating systems: PXE support can be used to install various operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, etc.
ISCSI support
1. ISCSI is a network storage protocol that allows SCSI commands to be transmitted over an IP network.
2. ISCSI supports block-level data access and file system mapping.
3. The ISCSI protocol uses the TCP/IP protocol as its transport layer protocol.
4. The iSCSI target is connected to the iSCSI Target through the iSCSI Initiator.
5. ISCSI supports multiple data transmission rates, such as 10Gbps, 40Gbps and 80Gbps.
6. ISCSI can realize hot-plugging and dynamic expansion of disks.
FCoE support
"FCoE support" is a new type of computer storage technology that provides a direct connection to the server, thereby increasing the speed and efficiency of data transfer.
Improved I/O performance: With FCoE, data center input/output (I/O) performance can be significantly improved because data can be transferred directly between servers and storage devices without additional processing steps.
Simplified network structure: FCoE support eliminates multiple layers in traditional networks, thereby simplifying the network structure, reducing management complexity, and improving scalability.
Optimized resource utilization: Because FCoE is directly connected to servers, computing and storage resources can be utilized more efficiently, improving the overall efficiency of the data center.
Enable seamless migration: FCoE support makes it easier to migrate data between different hardware platforms or storage solutions, enabling seamless data migration and protection.
DPDK support
DPDK (Data Plane Development Kit) is a high-performance open source data plane development kit that provides a complete set of drivers and libraries for accelerating network applications. Here are four small points about DPDK support:
1. DPDK can improve the performance and throughput of network applications.
2. DPDK supports multiple hardware platforms, including Intel, AMD and ARM, etc.
3. DPDK provides a large number of data plane drivers and libraries to meet various network requirements.
4. DPDK is easy to use and integrate, and can quickly add high-performance support to existing network applications.
WoL support
1. WoL (Windows Offload Load) is a technology that allows the network card to offload some packet processing tasks to the driver, thereby improving system performance.
2. WoL supports TCP/IP protocol stack, network subsystem, etc., which can optimize the receiving and sending process of data packets.
3. Through WoL technology, users can implement customized functions, such as QoS (Quality of Service) control, load balancing, etc., without modifying the driver.
4. WoL support requires configuration and management at the operating system kernel level, which may be complicated for ordinary users.
VMDq support
VMDq is the abbreviation of VMD (Virtual Machine Ditch), which is a network virtualization technology.
VMDq supports the creation of virtual network devices on the physical network, improving network resource utilization.
VMDq uses multicast and broadcast to transmit data, reducing communication latency.
VMDq can realize centralized management of network devices and simplify network maintenance work.
VMDq can improve network security and prevent unauthorized devices from accessing the network.
VMDq supports dynamic routing to adapt to changes in the network environment.
VMDq can achieve load balancing of network devices and improve network performance.
VMDq helps realize data center virtualization and improves enterprise IT efficiency.
RSS support
1. Network card RSS (Receiver Transmitter Caching) is a hardware and software technology used to reduce repeated transmission of data packets in a local area network.
2. RSS stores the received data packet information on the local network interface to quickly identify and avoid repeated transmissions.
3. The size of network card RSS is limited by physical memory. Increasing memory can increase RSS capacity, thereby reducing packet loss and delay.
4. The operating system usually automatically adjusts the RSS size, but administrators can also set it manually through command line tools.
5. In a server environment, optimizing RSS configuration is crucial to improving network performance and reducing CPU resource consumption.
6. Use tools such as rss.conf to easily manage the RSS settings of multiple network cards in the system.
Jumbo frame support
1. Jumbo frame: Large frame transmission technology improves network performance and data transmission efficiency.
2. Reduce latency: Reduce network transmission latency by reducing the number of data packets.
3. Improve throughput: Large frame transmission can increase the amount of data transmitted per second and improve network throughput.
4. Suitable for QoS services: Jumbo frame support helps optimize service quality and ensure priority transmission of key data packets.
PCI-SIG-SR-IOV support
1. PCI-SIG-SR-IOV is a new I/O virtualization technology that allows multiple I/O devices to share a physical network card, thereby improving system performance and resource utilization.
2. Through PCI-SIG-SR-IOV technology, users can dynamically allocate and manage network devices without modifying the original hardware configuration, improving the flexibility and scalability of the system.
3. PCI-SIG-SR-IOV technology supports a variety of I/O device types, including Ethernet cards, storage devices, video cards, etc., providing users with richer choices and application scenarios.
4. PCI-SIG-SR-IOV uses a software-based method to virtualize I/O devices, avoiding hardware changes and upgrades, and reducing maintenance costs and risks.
5. Currently, many mainstream operating systems and cloud service providers have supported PCI-SIG-SR-IOV technology, such as Windows Server, Linux, VMware, etc., making it easier for users to use this new I/O virtualization plan.
