When configuring multichannel on adapters that support IBM Virtual Fabric and

UFP modes, the configuration screen will depend on the Multichannel Mode that

has been selected.

Note: For illustration purposes, the screen displays in this section are for a system

with IBM Virtual Fabric Mode enabled.

Figure 2-13 IBM Virtual Fabric Mode Configuration Screen

Notes:

Logical Link Status is displayed as “N/A” for storage functions.

SR-IOV support can only be enabled if multichannel support is disabled.

If your system does not support some of the multichannel options, those

unavailable options are displayed as N/A on the MultiChannel Configuration

screen.

The SVID, or Outer VLAN ID, is displayed in IBM Virtual Fabric Mode and IBM

Unified Fabric Protocol Mode. This value is provided by the IBM switch and

will appear when the protocol modes are configured on the switch and the

adapter. If the protocol modes are not configured, a value of “N/A” is

displayed.

2. From the configuration screen, you can perform the following tasks:

Configure PXE boot support – see “Configuring PXE Boot Support” on

page 1525 for instructions.

Configure PXE VLAN ID/Priority – see “Configuring the PXE VLAN ID and

Priority” on page 1526 for instructions.
