Ethernet
########
This will be the most widely used interface on a router carrying traffic to the
real world.
*************
Configuration
*************
Common interface configuration
==============================
.. cmdinclude:: /_include/interface-common-with-dhcp.txt
:var0: ethernet
:var1: eth0
Ethernet options
================
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces ethernet <interface> duplex <auto | full | half>
Configure physical interface duplex setting.
* auto - interface duplex setting is auto-negotiated
* full - always use full-duplex
* half - always use half-duplex
VyOS default will be `auto`.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces ethernet <interface> speed <auto | 10 | 100 | 1000 |
2500 | 5000 | 10000 | 25000 | 40000 | 50000 | 100000>
Configure physical interface speed setting.
* auto - interface speed is auto-negotiated
* 10 - 10 MBit/s
* 100 - 100 MBit/s
* 1000 - 1 GBit/s
* 2500 - 2.5 GBit/s
* 5000 - 5 GBit/s
* 10000 - 10 GBit/s
* 25000 - 25 GBit/s
* 40000 - 40 GBit/s
* 50000 - 50 GBit/s
* 100000 - 100 GBit/s
VyOS default will be `auto`.
.. cfgcmd:: set interface ethernet <interface> ring-buffer rx <value>
.. cfgcmd:: set interface ethernet <interface> ring-buffer tx <value>
Configures the ring buffer size of the interface.
The supported values for a specific interface can be obtained
with: `ethtool -g <interface>`
Offloading
----------
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces ethernet <interface> offload <gro | gso | sg | tso |
ufo | rps>
Enable different types of hardware offloading on the given NIC.
:abbr:`LRO (Large Receive Offload)` is a technique designed to boost the
efficiency of how your computer's network interface card (NIC) processes
incoming network traffic. Typically, network data arrives in smaller chunks
called packets. Processing each packet individually consumes CPU (central
processing unit) resources. Lots of small packets can lead to a performance
bottleneck. Instead of handing the CPU each packet as it comes in, LRO
instructs the NIC to combine multiple incoming packets into a single, larger
packet. This larger packet is then passed to the CPU for processing.
.. note:: Under some circumstances, LRO is known to modify the packet headers
of forwarded traffic, which breaks the end-to-end principle of computer
networking. LRO is also only able to offload TCP segments encapsulated in
IPv4 packets. Due to these limitations, it is recommended to use GRO
(Generic Receive Offload) where possible. More information on the
limitations of LRO can be found here: https://lwn.net/Articles/358910/
:abbr:`GSO (Generic Segmentation Offload)` is a pure software offload that is
meant to deal with cases where device drivers cannot perform the offloads
described above. What occurs in GSO is that a given skbuff will have its data
broken out over multiple skbuffs that have been resized to match the MSS
provided via skb_shinfo()->gso_size.
Before enabling any hardware segmentation offload a corresponding software
offload is required in GSO. Otherwise it becomes possible for a frame to be
re-routed between devices and end up being unable to be transmitted.
:abbr:`GRO (Generic receive offload)` is the complement to GSO. Ideally any
frame assembled by GRO should be segmented to create an identical sequence of
frames using GSO, and any sequence of frames segmented by GSO should be able
to be reassembled back to the original by GRO. The only exception to this is
IPv4 ID in the case that the DF bit is set for a given IP header. If the
value of the IPv4 ID is not sequentially incrementing it will be altered so
that it is when a frame assembled via GRO is segmented via GSO.
:abbr:`RPS (Receive Packet Steering)` is logically a software implementation
of :abbr:`RSS (Receive Side Scaling)`. Being in software, it is necessarily
called later in the datapath. Whereas RSS selects the queue and hence CPU that
will run the hardware interrupt handler, RPS selects the CPU to perform
protocol processing above the interrupt handler. This is accomplished by
placing the packet on the desired CPU's backlog queue and waking up the CPU
for processing. RPS has some advantages over RSS:
- it can be used with any NIC
- software filters can easily be added to hash over new protocols
- it does not increase hardware device interrupt rate, although it does
introduce inter-processor interrupts (IPIs)
.. note:: In order to use TSO/LRO with VMXNET3 adapters, the SG offloading
option must also be enabled.
