CirrusBIG-IP VE: 40G Throughput from 4x10G physical NICs
Hello F5 Community, I'm designing a BIG-IP VE deployment and need to achieve 40G throughput from 4x10G physical NICs. After extensive research (including reading K97995640), I've created this ...

CirrusRegarding the comment: “For your goal of 40G throughput, you may want to consider allocating 4 Virtual Functions per Physical Function within SR-IOV” — are you referring to the left side of the branch?

If I use SR-IOV, then I need to verify the compatible NICs.
If I choose ESXi link aggregation, I assume that on the F5 VE side I will see a single 40G link. In that case, I don’t need to change any compatibility settings for the drivers. Is that correct?
