Yes, it supports both. > Has anyone done this with a Brooktrout faxmodem and Windows VM? > > And again - if I do this, it will be on brand new hardware and > everything today has the virtualization stuff these days. CPU virtualization, yes. An IOMMU for device assignment, make sure you do your homework. It can be hard enough to figure out if the hardware supports it (ark.intel.com is your friend), then if it does, still make sure the vendor enables it. Both VT-d and AMD-Vi need BIOS support. If the device doesn't support MSI, shared interrupts can also be a nuisance.
