A customer wants to install an HPE Proliant server that has a single dual port 10Gb NIC.
Which NIC feature should you introduce to allow each 10Gb port to be seen as four individual adapters in the operating system?

NPAR (Network Partitioning) is a feature that allows a single physical 10Gb port or 20Gb port to be divided into multiple network partitions, each of which is presented to the operating system as a separate network adapter. This helps in optimizing the usage of network resources by allowing multiple virtual adapters on a single physical NIC port.
Correct - from linked PDF ... up to four "Physical Function" NICs per port, in increments of 100 Mb/s for NIC
User configurable bandwidth settings when combined with the 20 Gb Flex-20 Virtual Connect module or using NPAR. From 100 Mb/s to 20 Gb/s on up to four "Physical Function" NICs per port, in increments of 100 Mb/s for NIC. The combined bandwidth of NICs cannot exceed port bandwidth i.e. 10 Gb.
Correct Answer: A
