Hi,

Here is my use case:

1. I have 4 ports: A, B, C and D

2. On each of the ports I wanted to enable 128 queues.

3. Next I would want to segregate 8 queues per pool, leading to 16 pools per
port.

4. 128 Queues are reqd. both for Tx and Rx directions.

With the above requirement, I thought VMDq + DCB will be useful. So when I
receive traffic on a Port A say with Vlan 100, then I give it Pool 1 in Port
A. Then based on the QoS tag in the VLAN header, I would go further and
place it in an appropriate queue within the pool.

I do not want to use RSS, but use DCB instead in combination with VMDq.

Thanks
Rama

PS: I saw the reply in the e1000 mailing list and not got a reply to my
gmail a/c.
