Hello,
NVME over Fabric is a great feature, I've not fully understood if to leverage the feature we need to have network switches that support this type of protocol or if the existing networks switches offer support for it.
I already know that RDMA-Enabled network card are needed.
Thank you for your reply

As long as you have switch playing nice with RoCEv2 you'll be good. So typical DCB configuration, buffer sizes etc.
