Multichannel Property Page with NPar Enabled
Figure 3-20 The Multichannel Property Page with NPar Enabled and NParEP Disabled
When NPar is enabled on the Multichannel property page, all PCI functions present on
a port are listed on each Port tab. Each row corresponds to a single PCI function and
contains all PCI function parameters. The following PCI function parameters are
available:

The Enabled column contains check boxes for each PCI function. Select a check
box to enable a PCI function. The PCI function will appear in the Device
Manager list when you reboot your system. If a check box is cleared, the PCI
function is disabled and will be removed from the Device Manager list on
system reboot.

The PF column displays the PCI function number starting with 0.

The Protocol column specifies the current role of the PCI function. You can
select NIC, iSCSI, or FCoE. Depending on the protocols supported by the
adapter, one of the following selections appears:

NIC - the NIC personality implies that all the enabled functions provide
NIC functionality.

iSCSI/FCoE - the iSCSI and FCoE personalities are enabled on one function
per adapter port and include NIC functionality on the other enabled
functions. There can be only one storage protocol on each port.

None - the "None" selection allows you to disable that particular function.

The bw[%] column lists the minimum bandwidth that a PCI function can use as
a percentage of the total port bandwidth.
