The following settings must be negotiated with the cluster administrator, for each network type available in the namespace:
-
The type of netdevice to be used for the VF (kernel or userspace)
-
The vlan ID to be applied to a given set of VFs available in a namespace
-
For kernel-space devices, the IP allocation is provided directly by the cluster IP assignment mechanism.
-
The option to configure the IP of a given SR-IOV interface at runtime, see Adding a pod to an SR-IOV additional network.

Note
|
SR-IOV settings are enabled by the cluster administrator. |
The SRIOVnetwork CR creates the network-attach-definition within the target networkNamespace.
