Fanout capabilities on connectx-7 nics

Infrastructure & Networking Software And Drivers SoC And SmartNIC
1

I was told that starting with fw 28.41.1000, we are now able to configure a connectx-7 nic with fanout functionality.
ex. a connectx-7 nic with a single 400G port can fanout to 4 x 100G ports using a fanout cable.
We were told that this needs to be configured with NVconfig but not sure how to use it or where to find that tool/command.

Hello jp127,

Thank you for posting your inquiry on the NVIDIA Developer Forum - Infrastructure and Networking - Section.

Based on the f/w version mentioned and on the latest f/w version this feature is not available yet.

Recommendation is to reach out to your NVIDIA Sales contact regarding the availability of this feature in later version of the f/w

Thank you and regards,
~NVIDIA Networking Technical Support
