HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 554FLB Adapter: технические характеристики и документация

HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 554FLB Adapter

The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 554FLB adapter supports Virtual Connect Flex-10 that allows each 10Gb port to be divided into four physical NICs to optimize bandwidth management for virtualized servers. When connected to a Data Center Bridging (DCB) capable switch, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Ethernet I/O are separated and routed to the corresponding network. For iSCSI storage, the HPE 554FLB supports full protocol offload providing better CPU efficiency when compared to software initiators thus enabling the server to handle increased virtualization workloads and compute-intensive applications. This combination of high-performance network and storage connectivity reduces cost and complexity and provides the flexibility and scalability to fully optimize Gen8 BladeSystem servers. The HPE 554FLB delivers the performance benefits and cost savings of converged network connectivity for HPE BladeSystem servers. The dual-port HPE 554FLB optimizes network and storage traffic with hardware acceleration and offloads for stateless TCP/IP, TCP Offload Engine (TOE), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI..

Virtual Connect Flex-10

Evolve 10 Gb at your own speed when paired with the HPE Virtual Connect Flex-10 10 Gb Ethernet Modules. Take advantage of four Flex Nics, which are PCI Physical Function devices that are OS/ Hypervisor independent.
Server ROM recognizes them as individual NICs.
Speeds can be set per NIC from 100 Mb to 10 Gbs in 100 Mb increments.
Three fold increase in number of network connections per port.
Up to four physical function NICs per port.
Ideal for virtualized server environment, especially for dedicated bandwidth applications like virtual machine migration from one physical server to another physical server.

Throughput-Theoretical Bandwidth

This adapter delivers 20 Gb/s bi-directional Ethernet transfer rate per port (40 Gb/s per adapter), providing the network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks.

802.1p QoS Tagging

IEEE quality of service (QoS) 802.1p tagging allows the adapter to mark or tag frames with a priority level across a QoS-aware network for improved traffic flow.

802.1Q VLANs

IEEE 802.1Q virtual local area network (VLAN) protocol allows each physical port of this adapter to be separated into multiple virtual NICs for added network segmentation and enhanced security and performance. VLANs increase security by isolating traffic between users. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN domain also improves performance.

Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)

Combines the functionality of an industry-standard NIC with an industry-proven Fibre Channel to seamlessly converge the traffic over a shared lossless Ethernet network.

Jumbo Frames

This adapter supports Jumbo Frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9,000 byte (KB) transmission unit (MTU) when running Ethernet I/O traffic. This is over five times the size of a standard 1500-byte Ethernet frame. With Jumbo Frames, networks can achieve higher throughput performance and greater CPU utilization. These attributes are particularly useful for database transfer and tape backup operations..

Network Adapter Teaming

This adapter support for NIC teaming helps IT administrators increase network fault tolerance and increased network bandwidth, the team of adapters can work together as a single virtual adapter, providing support for several different types of teaming enabling IT administrators to optimize availability, improve performance and help reduce costs.

Single-Root I/O Virtualization

Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) provides a mechanism to bypass the host system hypervisor in virtual environments providing near metal performance and server efficiency. SR-IOV provides mechanism to create multiple Virtual Functions (VFs) to share single PCIe resources. The device is capable of SR-IOV, and requires Server BIOS support, controller firmware, and OS support.

TCP/UDP/IP

For overall improved system response, this adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques including:
TCP/IP, UDP checksum offload (TCO) moves the TCP and IP checksum offloading from the CPU to the network adapter. Large send offload (LSO) or TCP segmentation offload (TSO) allows the TCP segmentation to be handled by the adapter rather than the CPU.

TOE

TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) shifts the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server CPU to the adapter's processor, freeing server CPU cycles for other operations.

Wake-on-LAN

This adapter provides Wake-on-LAN (WoL) support through the PCI Express bus. A system that supports Wake-on-LAN can remain available to the systems administrator during its normal downtime. Once the machine is awakened, the systems administrator can remotely control, audit, debug, or manage the machine.

Warranty

Maximum: The remaining warranty of the HPE product in which it is installed (to a maximum three-year, limited warranty).
Minimum: One year limited warranty.
