You can verify the IOV VF function by using the PowerShell cmdlet Get-NetAdapterSriovVf. ntopng analyze network traffic, not logs, so it will not work on a log server unless you you SPAN / port monitor on your network switch. The user mode process will retry to enable I/O Virtualization at a later stage in few moments. Promiscuous mode means the kernel or network card wont drop packages that arent addressed to your network card however, it does not mean that such packages will be sent to your network card, or (if youre using wpa2) that theyll be encrypted to your network card. The event may have description that resembles the following example:įailed to allocate virtual function for NIC (Friendly Name: Network Adapter), status = CauseĮvent 236 is logged when the user-mode process tries to allocate a virtual function before the VM and the host communication channel is established.

When the VM or the computer is restarted, event ID 236 is logged in the System log. Since youre on Windows, my recommendation would be to update your Wireshark version to the latest available, currently 3.0. Uzzi you added -online-license-check to nf and you are checking the nprobe license. Adding -online-license-check should solve the issue. The most typical use cases include network intrusion detection systems (NIDS), monitoring tools such as (Wireshark, Microsoft Message Analyzer, etc. Running on top of a VM may result in hardware changes (e.g., the hypervisor can change the cards MAC addresses). On a Windows Server 2016, a Windows Server 2019, a Windows Server, version 1903, or a Windows Server, version 1909 computer that has Hyper-V role enabled, there's a guest virtual machine (VM) that is running Windows Server, and the VM has Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) enabled. In short, the promiscuous mode allows a network device to intercept and read each network packet that arrives in its entirety. This article provides a solution to an Event ID 236 that occurs on a Hyper-V server that has SR-IOV enabled on a VM in Windows Server.Īpplies to: Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019 Original KB number: 4136996 Symptom
