2 Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI) enables standard networking, clustering, storage, and managementprotocols to seamlessly operate over any converged network by leveraging a consolidated software port can operate on InfiniBand, Ethernet, or Data Center Bridging (DCB) fabrics, and supportsEthernet over InfiniBand (EoIB) as well as RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE). VPI simplifies I/O systemdesign and makes it easier for IT managers to deploy infrastructure that meets the challenges of a dynamicdata ConnectX-4 Adapters1 Part number informationThe following table shows the part numbers for Adapters for ThinkSystem, System x and 1.
