PMTR-57190
UPDATE: Improved Multi-Queue distribution of IPsec SPI traffic. Notes:
This enhancement is supported on the Check Point "CPAC-4-10F-C" expansion line card.
This enhancement is supported only on network interface cards that are based on the Intel controllers X710, XXV710 and XL710 (which use the i40e driver). Applies to Check Point Appliances and Open Servers.
This feature is not supported on network interface cards that are based on the Intel X722 controller (which also uses the i40e driver).
For the non-supported interfaces, the message "Failed to fetch loaded profiles" can appear in the dmesg. You can safely ignore this message. Applies to Open Servers only.
