Description
Intel 700 X710-DA4 10Gigabit Ethernet Card – PCI Express 3.0 x8 – 4 Port(s) – Optical Fiber – 10GBase-SR
10GBase-LR – Plug-in Card X710-DA4 RETAIL UNIT
The Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter X710-DA2 and -DA4 for OCP 3.0 provide broad interoperability
critical performance optimizations
and increased agility for Communications
Cloud
and Enterprise IT network solutions.
- Interoperability – Multiple speeds and media types for broad compatibility backed by extensive testing and validation.
- Optimization – Intelligent offloads and accelerators to unlock Network performance in servers with Intel® Xeon® processors.
- Agility – Both Kernel and Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) drivers for scalable packet processing.
The OCP NIC 3.0 specification defines a standardized design for a new generation of network adapters. Simple and straightforward form factors
clear manageability requirements
and improved serviceability help simplify deployment for current and emerging capabilities.
The Intel® Ethernet 700 Series delivers networking performance across a wide range of network port speeds through intelligent offloads
sophisticated packet processing
and quality open source drivers.
All Intel® Ethernet 700 Series Network Adapters include these feature-rich technologies:
Flexible and Scalable I/O for Virtualized Infrastructures
Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT)
delivers outstanding I/O performance in virtualized server environments.
I/O bottlenecks are reduced through intelligent offloads
enabling near-native performance and VM scalability. These offloads include Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) and Flexible Port Partitioning using SR-IOV with a common Virtual Function driver for networking traffic per Virtual Machine (VM). Host-based features supported include:
VMDQ for Emulated Path: VMDQ
enables a hypervisor to represent a single network port as multiple network ports that can be assigned to the individual VMs. Traffic handling is offloaded to the network controller
delivering the benefits of port partitioning with little to no administrative overhead by the IT staff.
SR-IOV for Direct Assignment: Adapter-based isolation and switching for various virtual station instances enables optimal CPU usage in virtualized environments.
- Up to 128 virtual functions (VFs)
each VF can support a unique and separate data path for I/O related functions within the PCI Express hierarchy. - Use of SR-IOV with a networking device
for example
allows the bandwidth of a single port (function) to be partitioned into smaller slices that can be allocated to specific VMs or guests
via a standard interface.
Intel® Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function (Intel® Ethernet AVF): Customers deploying mass-scale VMs or containers for their network infrastructure now have a common VF driver. This driver eases SR-IOV hardware upgrades or changes
preserves base-mode functionality in hardware and software
and supports an advanced set of features in the Intel® Ethernet 700 Series.
Enhanced Network Virtualization Overlays (NVO)
Network virtualization has changed the way networking is done in the data center
delivering accelerations across a wide range of tunneling methods.
VxLAN
GENEVE
NVGRE
MPLS
and VxLAN-GPE with NSH Offloads: These stateless offloads preserve application performance for overlay networks
and the network traffic can be distributed across CPU cores
increasing network throughput.
