To configure FPT, ensure your system supports and has Virtual Technology enabled. • Login to ESX via the VMware vSphere client. • Navigate to the host configuration tab and then click on the “Advanced Settings”option on the left column. • The PCI devices will be displayed and select the desired NIC. • Reboot the ESX server. • Add the desired NIC as a PCI device to the appropriate virtual machine. • Power on virtual machine and load the driver.
