vmxnet3

PreviousPage 2 of 2

on windows, If ESXi 7.0 lacks e1000 support, consider alternative virtualization solutions supporting vmxnet3. Keep in mind that technology advances rapidly, and new developments may have occurred since September 2021. Check KVM documentation and ESXi updates for current support and workarounds.

KVM Antlet is a platform based on Firecracker that runs virtual machines (antlets) and fate/grand order. Firecracker uses KVM for microVMs. Though KVM supports various virtual network adapters, such as virtio and e1000, it may not directly include vmxnet3, commonly used in VMware ESXi. Check it out for more info.

I'm on RHEL8.5 and I'm trying to configure a VM with a vmxnet3 network card. dinosaur game
I think it is supposed to work because vmxnet3 driver are mentioned in Release notes until RHEL8.3 as "VMware vmxnet3 virtual NIC driver (vmxnet3.ko.xz) has been updated to version 1.5.0.0-k." and I can't find any subsequent deprecation notice.

But when I launch a VM with this network card type I got en error like this (this from Virtual Machine Manager):
internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2022-02-06T00:00:51.346862Z qemu-kvm: -device vmxnet3,netdev=hostnet1,id=net1,mac=52:54:00:33:cb:b3,bus=pci.10,addr=0x1: 'vmxnet3' is not a valid device model name

it's work!!! Thanks !
