Manage Modules with esxcli system module

Not all VMkernel modules have settable module options.
The following example illustrates how to examine and enable a VMkernel module. Specify one of the connection options listed in Connection Options for vCLI Host Management Commands in place of
<conn_options>
.
  1. List information about the module. 
    esxcli <conn_options> system module list --module=module_name
    The system returns the name, type, value, and description of the module.
  2. List all enabled or loaded modules. 
    esxcli <conn_options> system module list --enabled=true
esxcli <conn_options> system module list --loaded=true
  3. Enable the model. 
    esxcli <conn_options> system module set --module=
    module_name
     --enabled=true
  4. Set the parameter. 
    esxcli system module parameters set --module=
    module_name
     --parameter-string=
    "parameter_string"
  5. Verify that the module is configured. 
    esxcli <conn_options> system module parameters list --module=
    module_name
