Configure a Citrix ADC VPX instance to use Azure accelerated networking
Accelerated networking enables the single root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV) virtual function (VF) NIC to a virtual machine, which improves the networking performance. You can use this feature with heavy workloads that need to send or receive data at higher throughput with reliable streaming and lower CPU utilization. When a NIC is enabled with accelerated networking, Azure bundles the NIC’s existing para virtualized (PV) interface with an SR-IOV VF interface. The support of SR-IOV VF interface enables and enhances the throughput of the Citrix ADC VPX instance.
Accelerated networking provides the following benefits:
- Lower latency
- Higher packets per second (pps) performance
- 增强throughput
- Reduced jitter
- Decreased CPU utilization
Note
Azure accelerated networking is supported on Citrix ADC VPX instances from release 13.0 build 76.29 onwards.
Prerequisites
- Ensure that your VM size matches the requirements for Azure accelerated networking.
- Stop VMs (individual or in an availability set) before enabling accelerated networking on any NIC.
Limitations
Accelerated networking can be enabled only on some instance types. For more information, seeSupported instance types.
NICs supported for accelerated networking
Azure provides Mellanox ConnectX3 and ConnectX4 NICs in the SR-IOV mode for accelerated networking.
When accelerated networking is enabled on a Citrix ADC VPX interface, Azure bundles either ConnectX3 or ConnectX4 interface with the existing PV interface of a Citrix ADC VPX appliance.
For more information about enabling accelerated networking before attaching an interface to a VM, seeCreate a network interface with accelerated networking.
For more information about enabling accelerated networking on an existing interface on a VM, seeEnable existing interfaces on a VM.
How to enable accelerated networking on Citrix ADC VPX instance using the Azure console
You can enable accelerated networking on a specific interface using the Azure console or the Azure PowerShell.
Do the following steps to enable accelerated networking by using Azure availability sets or availability zones.
Log in toAzure portal, and navigate toAzure Marketplace.
From theAzure Marketplace, searchCitrix ADC.
Select a non-FIPS Citrix ADC plan along with license, and clickCreate.
TheCreate Citrix ADCpage appears.
In theBasicstab, create a Resource Group. Under theParameterstab, enter details for the Region, Admin user name, Admin Password, license type (VM SKU), and other fields.
ClickNext : VM Configurations >.
On theVM Configurationspage, perform the following:
- Configure public IP domain name suffix.
- Enable or disableAzure Monitoring Metrics.
- Enable or disableBackend Autoscale.
ClickNext: Network and Additional settings >.
On theNetwork and Additional Settingspage, create a Boot diagnostics account and configure the network settings.
Under theAccelerated Networkingsection, you have the option to enable or disable the accelerated networking separately for the Management interface, Client interface, and Server interface.
ClickNext: Review + create >.
After the validation is successful, review the basic settings, VM configurations, network and additional settings, and clickCreate. It might take some time for the Azure Resource Group to be created with the required configurations.
After the deployment is complete, select theResource Groupto see the configuration details.
To verify the Accelerated Networking configurations, selectVirtual machine > Networking. The Accelerated Networking status is displayed asEnabledorDisabledfor each NIC.
Enable accelerated networking using Azure PowerShell
If you need to enable accelerated networking after the VM creation, you can do so using Azure PowerShell.
Note:
Ensure to stop the VM before you enable Accelerated Networking using Azure PowerShell.
Perform the following steps to enable accelerated networking by using Azure PowerShell.
Navigate toAzure portal, click thePowerShellicon on the right-hand top corner.
Note:
If you are in the Bash mode, change to the PowerShell mode.
At the command prompt, run the following command:
az network nic update --name
--accelerated-networking [true | false] --resource-group The accelerated networking parameter accepts either of the following values:
- True:Enables accelerated networking on the specified NIC.
- False:Disables accelerated networking on the specified NIC.
To enable accelerated networking on a specific NIC:
az network nic update --name citrix-adc-vpx-nic01-0 --accelerated-networking true --resource-group rsgp1-aan
To disable accelerated networking on a specific NIC:
az network nic update --name citrix-adc-vpx-nic01-0 --accelerated-networking false --resource-group rsgp1-aan
To verify the Accelerated Networking status after the deployment is completed, Navigate toVM > Networking.
In the following example, you can see that Accelerated Networking isEnabled.
In the following example, you can see that Accelerated Networking isDisabled.
To verify accelerated networking on an interface by using FreeBSD Shell of Citrix ADC
You can log in to FreeBSD shell of Citrix ADC, and run the following commands to verify the accelerated networking status.
Example for ConnectX3 NIC:
The following example shows the “ifconfig” command output of the Mellanox ConnectX3 NIC. The “50/n” indicates the VF interfaces of the Mellanox ConnectX3 NICs. 0/1 and 1/1 indicates the PV interfaces of the Citrix ADC VPX instance. You can observe that both PV interface (1/1) and CX3 VF interface (50/1) have the same MAC addresses (00:22:48:1c:99:3e). This indicates that the two interfaces are bundled together.
Example for ConnectX4 NIC:
The following example shows the “ifconfig” command output of the Mellanox ConnectX4 NIC. The “100/n” indicates the VF interfaces of the Mellanox ConnectX4 NICs. 0/1, 1/1, and 1/2 indicates the PV interfaces of Citrix ADC VPX instance. You can observe that both PV interface (1/1) and CX4 VF interface (100/1) have the same MAC addresses (00:0d:3a:9b:f2:1d). This indicates that the two interfaces are bundled together. Similarly, the PV interface (1/2) and CX4 VF interface (100/2) have the same MAC addresses (00:0d:3a:1e:d2:23).
To verify accelerated networking on an interface by using ADC CLI
Example for ConnectX3 NIC:
以下命令输出籼稻显示界面tes that the PV interface 1/1 is bundled with virtual function 50/1, which is an SR-IOV VF NIC. The MAC addresses of both 1/1 and 50/1 NICs are the same. After accelerated networking is enabled, the data of the 1/1 interface is sent through datapath of the 50/1 interface, which is a ConnectX3 interface. You can see that the “show interface” output of PV interface (1/1) points to the VF (50/1). Similarly, the “show interface” output of VF interface (50/1) points to the PV interface (1/1).
Example for ConnectX4 NIC:
以下命令输出籼稻显示界面tes that the PV interface 1/1 is bundled with virtual function 100/1, which is an SR-IOV VF NIC. The MAC addresses of both 1/1 and 100/1 NICs are the same. After accelerated networking is enabled, the data of 1/1 interface is sent through the data path of 100/1 interface, which is a ConnectX4 interface. You can see that the “show interface” output of PV interface (1/1) points to the VF (100/1). Similarly, the “show interface” output of VF interface (100/1) points to the PV interface (1/1).
Points to note in Citrix ADC
- PV interface is considered as the primary or main interface for all the necessary operations. Configurations must be performed on PV interfaces only.
- All the ‘set’ operations on a VF interface are blocked except the following:
- enable interface
- disable interface
- reset interface
- clear stats
Note:
Citrix recommends that you do not perform any operations on the VF interface.
- You can verify the binding of PV interface with VF interface using the
show interface
command.
Configure a VLAN to a PV interface
When a PV interface is bound to a VLAN, the associated accelerated VF interface is also bound to the same VLAN as the PV interface. In this example, the PV interface (1/1) is bound to VLAN (20). The VF interface (100/1) that is bundled with the PV interface (1/1) is also bound to VLAN 20.
Example:
Create a VLAN.
add vlan 20
Bind a VLAN to the PV interface.
bind vlan 20 –ifnum 1/1 show vlan 1) VLAN ID: 1 Link-local IPv6 addr: fe80::20d:3aff:fe9b:f21d/64 Interfaces : LO/1 2) VLAN ID: 10 VLAN Alias Name: Interfaces : 0/1 100/1 IPs : 10.0.1.29 Mask: 255.255.255.0 3) VLAN ID: 20 VLAN Alias Name: Interfaces : 1/1 100/2
Note
VLAN binding operation is not permitted on an accelerated VF interface.
bind vlan 1 -ifnum 100/1 ERROR: Operation not permitted
