4.15.3 Enabling SR-IOV and Para Virtualization on the Same Setup
 To enable SR-IOV and Para Virtualization on the same setup:
Step 1. Create a bridge.
vim /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bridge0
DEVICE=bridge0
TYPE=Bridge
IPADDR=12.195.15.1
NETMASK=255.255.0.0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DELAY=0
Step 2. Change the related interface (in the example below bridge0 is created over eth5).
DEVICE=eth5
BOOTPROTO=none
STARTMODE=on
HWADDR=00:02:c9:2e:66:52
TYPE=Ethernet
NM_CONTROLLED=no
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=bridge0
Step 3. Restart the service network.
