Yes, BUT, the PCI cards themselves have to support it, and not all do.
Usually, it's OK to enable steering anyway, and those PCI cards that
support
it will all share, and cards that dont, wont.
Occasionally however, some cards that don't support it will also complain
(often violently!) if it is even turned on, forcing you turn the feature
off
completely.
You just have to "suck it & see"
