Connext-x3 roce mode

#1

Hello,

can someone confirm what roce mode should I use for my Windows 2016 S2D deployment? I am using Connect-X3 (not Pro).

Thanks!

Hi Hassan,

Please note that for ConnectX-3 or older adapter cards the only supported roce version is : RoCEv1.

For your refernce please see the following : Mellanox Adapters - Comparison Table https://community.mellanox.com/s/article/mellanox-adapters---comparison-table

Latest WinOf driver 5.5 supports Connectx-3 on Windows 2016 with firmware version 2.42.5000 and above:
