vmxnet

VMXNET(9)							   Open VM Tools							 VMXNET(9)

NAME

       vmxnet - vmware kernel module

SYNOPSIS

       modprobe vmxnet

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  a  Linux  kernel device driver module that drives VMware's fast networking device. As it is backed by real (virtual) hardware, it
       should be automatically loaded by hotplug or udev as needed. For best performance, it is recommended to enable TSO on all interfaces driven
       by vmxnet using ethtool.

       The shell code to do this might look like this:

       if which ethtool >/dev/null 2>&1; then
	  for ethif in `ifconfig -a | grep ^eth | cut -d' ' -f1`; do
	     ethtool -K $ethif tso on >/dev/null 2>&1
	  done fi

       The VMware backend may present the fast networking device as an AMD vlance device instead of the actual vmxnet device.
