p NetVSC emulates an RNDIS 1.0 compliant device on top of a custom NVS protocol operating over the VMBus channel ring.
p Individual networking interfaces can be renamed by issuing a .Cm 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 .Em Trunk mode with the .Cm Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan command. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr autoconf 4 , .Xr hyperv 4 , .Xr intro 4 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in .Ox 6.1 . .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm driver was written by .An Mike Belopuhov Aq Mt mikeb@openbsd.org based on the .Fx driver by the Microsoft BSD Integration Services Team .Aq Mt bsdic@microsoft.com .
