Lenovo Intel Ethernet Connection X722 Bedienungsanleitung
Intel X722 Integrated 10 GbE Controller for Lenovo
ThinkSystem
Product Guide
The Intel Ethernet Connection X722 is a network controller embedded into the Intel C624 "Lewisburg" PCH
chipset of Lenovo ThinkSystem servers. The controller connects to available 10 GbE and 1 Gigabit
Ethernet LAN-on-motherboard (LOM) adapter cards and onboard connectors to provide a comprehensive
1 GbE / 10 GbE networking solution for ThinkSystem customers.
ThinkSystem servers support either 10 Gb Ethernet copper or optical connections, or Gigabit Ethernet
connections depending on the server model.
The following figure shows the ThinkSystem 10Gb 4-port SFP+ LOM adapter which provides four SFP+
cages for optical or direct-attach copper (DAC) connectivity.

Did you know?
The Intel Ethernet Connection X722 shares the same driver package as the Intel X710 adapters making
driver management easier for existing customers.
ThinkSystem LOM adapters are cost-effective adapters that take advantage of the X722 controller
embedded in Intel Xeon Processor Scalable Family chipset and offer the flexibility advantages of a PCIe
adapter while supporting integrated networking features, such as Wake-on-LAN and direct connectivity to
the XClarity Controller management processor for NC-SI-compliant systems management.

Features
The Intel X722 controller is optimized for data center, cloud, and mobile applications and includes the
following features:
VXLAN/NVGRE Hardware Offloads: These stateless offloads preserve application performance for
overlay networks. With these offloads, it is possible to distribute network traffic across CPU cores.
At the same time, the controller offloads LSO, GSO, and checksum from the host software, which
reduces CPU overhead.
Low latency: Intel Ethernet Flow Director delivers hardware-based application steering and Intel
Data Direct I/O makes the processor cache the primary destination and source of I/O data rather
than main memory.
Virtualization performance: With Intel Virtualization Technology (VT), the controller delivers
outstanding I/O performance in virtualized server environments. The controller reduces I/O
bottlenecks by providing intelligent offloads for networking traffic per virtual machine (VM), which
enables near-line rate speeds for small packets and supports almost an unlimited amount of
isolated traffic flows so that you can scale your cloud environment.
Next-generation VMDq: The controller support up to 128 VMDq VMs and offer enhanced Quality of
Service (QoS) feature by providing weighted round-robin servicing for the Tx data. The controller
offloads the data-sorting functionality from the hypervisor to the network silicon, which improves
data throughput and CPU usage.
SR-IOV implementation: Provides an implementation of the PCI-SIG standard for I/O Virtualization.
The physical configuration of each port is divided into multiple virtual ports. Each virtual port is
assigned to an individual VM directly by bypassing the virtual switch in the Hypervisor, which results
in near-native performance.
iWarp RDMA support implements kernel bypass and direct data placement and allows for more
efficient high-speed networking by eliminating queues and network related interrupts
Intel X722 Integrated 10 GbE Controller for Lenovo ThinkSystem 6
VM load balancing: Provides traffic load balancing (Tx and Rx) across VMs that are bound to the
team interface. It also provides fault tolerance of a switch, port, or cable.
Auto-detect (PnP) feature for the LOM adapters, enabling you to change LOM adapters (eg from a
1Gb LOM to 10 Gb LOM) and the network interface will automatically reconfigure during the boot
process
The following figure shows the ThinkSystem 10Gb 2-port SFP+ LOM adapter which provides two SFP+
cages for optical or direct-attach copper (DAC) connectivity.
Tip: Ports 1 is at further away from the edge connector and Port 2 is at the bottom, closer to the edge
connector.
