The Network I/O Control (NetIOC) feature in VMware vSphere® has been enhanced in vSphere 6.0 to support a number of exciting new features such as bandwidth reservations.
After tests demonstrate the performance utility of these new features, the performance impact of the new NetIOC algorithm is explored. Later tests show that NetIOC offers a powerful way to achieve network resource isolation at minimal cost, in terms of latency and CPU utilization.
