The SRIOV Config tab allows you to specify the SR-IOV capability for a physical function (PF). The information is used to construct the SR-IOV capability structure. Virtual functions do not exist on power-on. It is the function of the system software to discover and enable VFs based on system capability. The VF support is discovered by scanning the SR-IOV capability structure for each PF.

Note: When SRIOV Capability is selected in Capabilities Tab, the SRIOV Config tab appears.

The SRIOV Config Tab is shown in the following figure.
