(ESnet / JLaB FPGA Accelerated Transport)
EJFAT is a collaboration between Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) and Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory (JLab) for proof of concept engineering for accelerated load balancer (LB) using dynamic IP4/6 address forwarding. Dynamic because the forwarding address is chosen dynamically from a collection of destination endpoints based on near real-time destination workload conditions, and accelerated because the forwarding is accomplished with low fixed latency at line rates of up to 200Gbps per FPGA, where in general a functioning LB may consist of up to four FPGAs acting as one logical DP for a total bandwidth capacity of over 1 Tbps. The low, fixed latency is achieved by utilization of an appropriately programmed Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to effect the Data Plane (DP) functions of the LB.

Network Path MTU Discovery support in the Linux Kernel:
file: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_mtu_probing variable: net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing (integer; default: 0; since Linux 2.6.17): tcp_mtu_probing - INTEGER Controls TCP Packetization-Layer Path MTU Discovery. Takes three values: 0 - Disabled 1 - Disabled by default, enabled when an ICMP black hole detected 2 - Always enabled, use initial MSS of tcp_base_mss.

- 1/13/2022: EJFAT team decided to solicit two bid responses, one with MLX NIC and one without. Response from Procurement is "I can ask for the two separate quotes. If you are going to purchase both option (with & without add-in cards), once I receive the quotes back, you will have submit a new PR to cover the option (without add-in cards)."
