Growth Of IP TrafficGrowth Of IP Traffic

Global IP Traffic Doubles Every Two Years Through2012–Six times larger than it was in 2007

–Four times larger than 2008

–CAGR : 46%

2012 75 The Internet In Will Be Times Larger Than2002–Internet traffic will generate 28 Exabytes per month in 2012, the

equivalent of seven billion DVDs each month

resulting in significant overhead• Customers increase the number of GbE ports

per server• Fibre Channel HBA provides SAN connectivity

10 Gigabit Ethernet• 10GbE NIC simplifies connectivity

- Scales with the platform- Lower power and lower cost than multiple 1GbE NICs

Unified Networking• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and iSCSI allows

LAN and SAN traffic to run over 10GbE

•VMDq (NOW)Packets sorted into queues for destination

VMs in the NIC hardware by MAC address and/or VLAN tags

Packets sent in groups to the VMM switch– Reduces number of decisions and data

• Ensures transmit fairness across VMs

• Prevents head-of-line blocking

Receive Path

• Data packets being received by respective VMs

• Sorted data packets get parsed to the respective VMs

• Data packets for different VMs get sorted at the Ethernet silicon based on MAC address/VLAN tags
