Dell Open RAN Accelerator (DORA)
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The Dell Open RAN Accelerator (DORA) utilizes the OCTEON Fusion CNF95xx chipset
|
||||
from Marvell and its design deviates from that of a standard network interface
|
||||
card (NIC), which requires specialized configuration. Unlike conventional NICs,
|
||||
the |DORA| requires the deployment of dedicated application software prior to
|
||||
its operational functionality. This application software assumes responsibility
|
||||
for:
|
||||
|
||||
- loading the octeon kernel module
|
||||
|
||||
- bringing up the |DORA| card on every boot
|
||||
|
||||
- making the VFs available as resources to Kubernetes
|
||||
|
||||
- bringing the |DORA| card down
|
||||
|
||||
- back up if a driver upgrade is desired
|
||||
|
||||
Any attempt to use the 'system' CLI to add ``pci-sriov`` VF interfaces will not
|
||||
succeed as drivers are not being loaded by default at boot time, although it is
|
||||
possible to configure it as a PCI passthrough PF interface.
