11.2. Permanently setting an offload feature

Procedure

1. Identify the connection profile that uses the network interface on which you want to change the state of the offload feature:

   # nmcli connection show
   NAME     UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE
   Example  a5eb6490-cc20-3668-81f8-0314a27f3f75  ethernet  enp1ss0
   ...

2. Permanently change the state of the offload feature:

   # nmcli connection modify <connection_name> <feature> <on|off>

   • For example, to permanently disable IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) offload in the Example connection profile, enter:

     # nmcli connection modify Example ethtool.feature-esp-hw-offload off

   • For example, to permanently enable accelerated Receive Flow Steering (aRFS) filtering in the Example connection profile, enter:

     # nmcli connection modify Example ethtool.feature-ntuple on

3. Reactivate the connection profile:

   # nmcli connection up Example
