Configure SR-IOV network interface¶

When configuring network for SR-IOV, you must place private network on a separate interface from the interface on which you enable SR-IOV. This enables VLAN network traffic to flow to Open vSwitch while having SR-IOV enabled.

To configure SR-IOV network interface:

1. Log in to the Fuel web UI.
2. Click Nodes.
3. Select the node on which you enable SR-IOV.
4. Click Configure Interfaces.
5. Drag and drop the Private network to a network interface.
6. On a separate network interface, enable SR-IOV by clicking Disabled next to SR-IOV.
7. Select the Enabled checkbox.
8. Type the number of virtual functions that do not exceed the number provided by Fuel.
9. Optionally, adjust the name of the physical network.
10. Click Apply.
11. Configure the rest of the environment settings as required and deploy the environment as described in Deploy an OpenStack environment.
