Is additional configuration required to make use of SR-IOV & VTq? I don't immediateley understand how the queueing knows who is who in the absense of eth.vlan- or if I need to for that matter. My hope is that this is something like plug n play as long as kernel, host & driver versions are >foo, but I haven't yet found documentation to confirm it.
