HVN(4) NetBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual HVN(4)
NAME
hvn -- Hyper-V networking interface
SYNOPSIS
hvn* at vmbus?
DESCRIPTION
The hvn driver provides support for a Network Virtual Service Client (NetVSC), a virtual networking interface that relays device requests to the Virtual Service Provider (VSP) in the management operating system via the VMBus. NetVSC emulates an RNDIS 1.0 compliant device on top of a custom NVS pro- tocol operating over the VMBus channel ring. Individual networking interfaces can be renamed by issuing a Rename-VMNetworkAdapter PowerShell command in the management domain. In order to enable sending and receiving of IEEE 802.1q (VLAN) frames, the virtual port needs to be put into Trunk mode with the Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan command.
