NIC assignment mapping

Last Updated : Jan 28, 2026 |

Following the migration of an ASP Dell R640 running on ESXi to ASP 130 R6.0.x, there is a change in the NIC port naming convention. The ports previously labeled as vmnic0-3 on the 4-port motherboard NIC and vmnic4-5 on the 2-port PCIe NIC are renamed to eno1-4 on the motherboard. The port names for ports 5 and 6 vary depending on the specific configuration within the ASP R6.0.x hypervisor environment.

This section outlines the NIC assignment configuration for the supported Dell servers in the Avaya Solutions Platform (ASP) Release R6.x, operating with KVM on RHEL 8.10, along with its various profile configurations.
