Performance
Performance
10 Gigabit Throughput |
The 10,000 Mbps Ethernet transfer rate delivers outstanding network performance that improves |
|
response time and removes bottlenecks required for the next generation datacenter. Ten Gigabit Ethernet |
|
bandwidth is ideal for high performance computing, database clusters, network attached storage, |
|
storage backups, grid systems, virtualization, server and I/O consolidation, fabric consolidation, and |
|
more. |
|
|
TCP/IP Offload Engine |
TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) moves the processing of data in the TCP protocol stack from the server |
|
CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other duties. With TOE, network communications are |
|
improved, and server efficiency is increased. The TOE multifunction feature is planned for future, near- |
|
term release available for both Windows and Linux. |
|
|
Accelerated iSCSI |
Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) allows the NC510F to multi-function both as a network |
|
adapter and as a storage host bus adapter, thereby providing access to storage boxes and to servers |
|
over a single connection. Accelerated iSCSI offloads the iSCSI software to the hardware for improved |
|
system performance. The accelerated iSCSI multifunction feature is planned for future, near-term release. |
|
|
RDMA |
Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) is a low-latency protocol providing improved throughput scaling |
|
and message latency between two RDMA-capable systems. RDMA allows data from the memory of one |
|
computer to communicate directly with the memory of another minimizing CPU and memory overhead. |
|
The RDMA multifunction feature is planned for future, near-term release. |
|
|
PCI Express Interface |
HP was an early champion of PCI Express bus technology and has played a key role in the development |
|
and industry adoption of the PCI Express specification. The NC510F is designed with an eight lane (x8) |
|
PCI Express bus based on the PCIe v1.1 standard. The adapter is backward compatible with four lane |
|
(x4) PCI Express automatically auto-sensing between x8 and x4 slots. |
|
|
Jumbo Frames |
Jumbo frames (also known as extended frames) permit a 8,000 byte transmission unit (MTU), which is |
|
five times the size of standard 1500 byte Ethernet frame. The NC510F supports jumbo frames as a way |
|
to achieve higher throughput and better CPU utilization. Jumbo frames are particularly useful for |
|
database transfers and tape backups. |
|
|
TCP Stateless Offloading |
For overall improved system response, the NC510F supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques |
|
including: |
|
TCP/IP 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. |
|
|
Interrupt Coalescing |
Interrupt coalescing (interrupt moderation) groups multiple packets, thereby reducing the number of |
|
interrupts sent to the host. This process optimizes host efficiency, leaving the CPU available for other |
|
duties. |
