I do not see the Receive Side Scaling and Large Send Offload options in BACS. Or, can someone from the Dell Server Tech Support group email me?

I don't know the details of how or why the Broadcom software does what it does, but you can verify that each one is separately connected on both the Dell EqualLogic MPIO tab in iSCSI Initiator and the Monitoring > Statistics > iSCSI Connections section of the EqualLogic array console.Ĭan someone please tell me how to do this? Do I need to unconfigure the Broadcom network adapters first? The NICs are configured using the Broadcom software, which hides them from Windows for some reason presumably having to do with its iSCSI offload implementation.
Each of the four NICs has its own IP on the subnet. if the other nics are enabled why don’t we see them when ipconfig is doneĪnswer: There is no teaming. we are aware that the MPIO table has the exclusion but the physical nic seen is only one. We need those 4 nics to be separately connected and we should see each establishing session independently to Equallogic.
They look disabled to Windows because that's how the Broadcom drivers work. They are using the Broadcom adapters (Broadcom Advanced Control Suite 4) that controls the four NICs.
Disable Offloading Technologies on All iSCSI Network Adapters I have an open case (SR ) and the Equallogic support person told me to contact Dell server support to find out how to configure the Broadcom NICs.Īnyways, this is what the EQL support person told me to do and I do not know how to do this: I was trying to email Dell tech support, but the button redirects me back to the tech support site.
