I am looking for a NIC card with SFP+ adapter that allows two ports to be connected transparently.
It should not be a switch, as all frames should be transported transparently.
This should be done in hardware and not burden the CPU.
At Cisco, this is the l2vpn xconn point-to-point service:
Furthermore, I would like to be able to capture the Rx/Tx stream as mirroring, filter it and reduce the frame
Like the Cisco function
mirror first 100
Can the ConnectX-4 offer these functions?
Or how do I achieve this with other functions in Hw?
Welcome, and thank you for posting your inquiry to the NVIDIA developer forums.
The ConnectX-4 does not support this functionality, and is functionally end-of-life. No further updates to the current feature set are planned.
