Configure Mechanism Drivers for SR-IOV

Procedure

  1. Configure the sriovnicswitch mechanism driver in the ml2_conf.ini file on each controller.
    [ml2] 
    tenant_network_types = vlan 
    type_drivers = vlan 
    mechanism_drivers = openvswitch, sriovnicswitch, extreme_efa 
    [ml2_type_vlan] 
    network_vlan_ranges = physnet1:2:500 
    
  2. Ensure that sriovnet is configured for the selected network type in the ml2_conf.ini file on each controller.
    [ml2_type_vlan]
    network_vlan_ranges = sriovnet1:100:500,sriovnet2:100:500
  3. Restart the Neutron.
