Maybe you can reference at RSS Support - MLNX_OFED v5.9-0.5.6.0 - NVIDIA Networking Docs
and Ethtool - MLNX_OFED v5.9-0.5.6.0 - NVIDIA Networking Docs
ethtool -l eth|Shows the number of channels.
ethtool -L eth [rx ] [tx ]|Sets the number of channels.

Hi Jeremysung1002,

Unfortunately, we cannot share internal information related to addressed question. If you hold an existing Account with us, you may reach out to the Sales Account Representative and they can determine/validate further if this information is permitted to be shared.

In addition, RSS is a concept about scaling to specific queue/s. As mentioned in above article, you can check the number of queues available. Our implementation of queues is generally based on the number of CPU’s present on the system.

Thanks,
Namrata.
