Managing vNICs
Guidelines for Managing vNICs
When managing vNICs, consider the following guidelines and restrictions:
•
The Cisco UCS P81E Virtual Interface Card and Cisco UCS VIC1225 Virtual Interface Card provide
two default vNICs (eth0 and eth1). You can create up to 16 additional vNICs on these adapter cards.
If Network Interface Virtualization (NIV) mode is enabled for the adapter, you must
assign a channel number to a vNIC when you create it.
Note
•
After making configuration changes, you must reboot the host for settings to take effect.
