#ENHANCED KEYBOARD DRIVER VMWARE MEANS INSTALL#
Install the Enhanced Keyboard Driver on a Windows Host Change Hot-Key Combinations for Common Operations Default Hot-Key Combinations. VXLAN is not supported currently in ENS mode. VMware Player 15 Installation Custom Setup Enhanced Keyboard Driver.RSS is not supported currently in ENS mode.Do not attach the uplink to ENS N-VDS when using PVRDMA or RoCE on this device. RDMA and ENS are mutually exclusive features in this release.Meaning, if we have 2-port devices with vmnic4 and vmnic5 uplinks connected to a regular ENS and ENS DVS respectively, no VFs will be created for vmnic5 PF. In such configuration, max_vfs module parameter for the ENS port will be ignored and no Virtual Functions will be created for this port. The device does not support SR-IOV when attached to ENS N-VDS.The following are the current ENS limitations: To find out the NIC’s affinity, run the following command: vsish -e cat /net/pNics//properties | grep -i numa ENS Limitations To use the enhanced keyboard functionality, you must perform a custom installation and select the component. To find out the number for NUMA nodes on your host, run the “esxcli hardware memory get” command. When the driver is not installed, the enhanced keyboard functionality is unavailable and you must press Ctrl-Alt-Ins instead of Ctrl-Alt-Del to send a Ctrl-Alt-Del keystroke to the guest. NUMA node and amount of logical cores for enhanced data- path processing is selected during the initial N-VDS configuration.įor further information, refer to: .doc/GUID-D7CA778B-6554-4A23-879D- 4BC336E01031.html#GUID-D7CA778B-6554-4A23-879D-4BC336E01031 To achieve best performance, it is recommended to have N-VDS assigned with NUMA node which is local to Mellanox NIC. Please follow VMWare documentation for N-VDS configuration instructions: Once the uplink is attached to NSX-T Virtual Distribute Switch (N-VDS) which is configured for ENS, the driver will be re-attached to the device and will initialize it to work with ENS. Device mode of operation is determined automatically based on Virtual Switch mode. ENS utilizes DPDK Poll Mode driver model and significantly improves packet rate and latency for small message sizes.Ĭurrent driver can operate in both ENS and legacy (slow path) modes. It is primarily targeted for NFV workloads, which requires the performance benefits provided by this mode. 3.Leave all of the default settings and click Unzip or OK. The Self-Extracting Driver Installation window appears and prompts to. Enhanced Network Stack (ENS), also appears as Enhanced Data Path is a networking stack mode, which when configured provides superior network performance. 1.Double-click the new icon on the desktop labeled R44838.EXE.
