BENEFITS
Designed for Next-Gen Server Virtualization
Designed for Next-Gen Server Virtualization
The 8400 Series iSCSI Network Adapters support today’s most
compelling set of powerful networking virtualization features: SR-IOV,
switch-independent NPAR, tunneling offloads (VXLAN and NVGRE), and
industry-leading performance, thus enhancing the underlying server
virtualization features.
