The following example launches a Kata Containers container using SR-IOV:

1. Build and start SR-IOV plugin:

   To install the SR-IOV plugin, follow theSR-IOV plugin installation instructions

2. Create the docker network:

   $ sudo docker network create -d sriov --internal --opt pf_iface=enp1s0f0 --opt vlanid=100 --subnet=192.168.0.0/24 vfnet
   
   E0505 09:35:40.550129    2541 plugin.go:297] Numvfs and Totalvfs are not same on the PF - Initialize numvfs to totalvfs

   The previous commands create the required SR-IOV docker network, subnet,vlanid, and physical interface.

3. Start containers and test their connectivity:

   $ sudo docker run --runtime=kata-runtime --net=vfnet --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --ip=192.168.0.10 -it alpine
   

   The previous example starts a container making use of SR-IOV. If two machines with SR-IOV enabled NICs are connected back-to-back and each has a network with matchingvlanid

   created, use the following two commands to test the connectivity:

   Machine 1:

   sriov-1:~$ sudo docker run --runtime=kata-runtime --net=vfnet  --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --ip=192.168.0.10 -it mcastelino/iperf bash -c "mount -t ramfs -o size=20M ramfs /tmp; iperf3 -s"
   
   

   Machine 2:

   sriov-2:~$ sudo docker run --runtime=kata-runtime --net=vfnet --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --ip=192.168.0.11 -it mcastelino/iperf iperf3 -c 192.168.0.10 bash -c "mount -t r
