NIC.DeviceLevelConfig.NParEP (Read or Write)
Description
Controls enablement of NParEP mode in which more than 8 PCI Physical Functions are exposed by
the device. When disabled, the device must expose only a maximum of 8 PFs in the traditional PCI
B:D:F addressing mode, regardless of any ARI capability being advertised for SR-IOV support. [Not to be
implemented if not supported] Note: Not all PCI slots in all servers are capable of supporting virtualization
features based on ARI and SR-IOV. The controller should check PCI config space settings to ensure that
vitualization modes are available before allowing their selection by the user.
