Hey all,
I'm using Intel 10 Gigabit 82599 NIC in a kvm environment in SR-IOV mode, and I have a few questions:
1. If I'm working with untagged traffic, is it possible to work with VFs in port-trunking mode? isn't there a possibility for a loop in that case?
If it's possible, is there any configuration that should be done in the level of VFs or L2 classifier?
2. is it possible to move a multi-cast from one VF to another on the same PF? is there a configuration needed for that sake?
3. Is STP protocol supported when working with VFs?
4. Is it possible to start a VM which I attached a VF to, if the PF of this VF is down? (down in ifconfig terms)
Thanks a lot in advance,
Shaham
