I'm just trying to understand how this all works, so I'm probably asking a stupid question: Would a SRIOV NIC with VEPA support show up as multiple devices? I.e. would I get e.g. eth0-eth7 for a NIC with support for 8 virtual interfaces? Would they have different MAC addresses? /Benny -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
