Docker Using SR-IOV
In this setup, Docker is used to run containers alongside the SR-IOV networking plugin, enabling high-performance networking. This configuration supports both InfiniBand and Ethernet link layers.
To isolate virtual RDMA devices within containers, the docker_rdma_sriov tool should be used.
