Management
The RJ45 Ethernet ports labeled “MGT
” provide access for remote management. The
management ports are configured with auto-negotiation capabilities by default (100MbE to
1000GbE). The management ports’ network attributes (such as IP Address) need to be pre-
configured via the RS232 serial console port or by DHCP before use. Refer to
USB
The USB interface is USB 2.0 compliant and can be used by MLNX-OS software to connect to an
external disk for software upgrade or file management. The connector comes in a standard USB
shape.
