+ <p>The Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) is a 25G SmartNIC developed by
+ Annapurna Labs based on a custom ARMv8 chip. This is a
+ high-performance networking card that is available to AWS virtual
+ machines. It introduces enhancements in network utilization
+ scalability on EC2 machines running various operating systems, in
+ particular &os;.</p>
+
+ <p>The goal of &os; enablement is to provide top performance and a
+ wide range of monitoring and management features such as:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>multiple queue modes</li>
+
+ <li>various offload functionality</li>
+
+ <li>admin queue</li>
+
+ <li>asynchronous notification</li>
+
+ <li>robust hardware access</li>
+
+ <li>scalable number of MSI-X interrupts</li>
+
+ <li>counters</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>The current state offers stable driver operation with good
+ performance on machines running &os; directly on the hardware.</p>
