Is it possible to split 100G SR4 fiber in 4*25G virtual devices?

Can a ConnectX 6 VPI be configured to appear as 4 virtual functions that are 25G each, using the 4 SR channels of the 100G link under the hood?

Hi Tom,

Yes. it can work like that.

We can use ‘ip link set dev vf 0’ to set speed.

More Info about VF can refer to:
