Methods and apparatus are provided for transferring data between servers and a remote entity having multiple peripherals. Multiple servers are connected to a remote entity over an Remote Direct Memory Access capable network. The remote entity includes peripherals such as network interface cards (NICs) and host bus adapters (HBAs). Server descriptor rings and descriptors are provided to allow efficient and effective communication between the servers and the remote entity.

Efficient data transfer between servers and remote peripherals

Methods and apparatus are provided for verifying and validating operation of a design under test (DUT). Input data sequences having information used to check expected outputs are provided to a DUT. The input data sequences include checking headers and data. The checking headers and data are randomized using encryption to verify and validate operation of the DUT on a variety of bit sequences. Different keys are used to allow further scrambling.
