How to change from IB to Ethernet, in Powershell, on a Mellanox CX353A - ConnectX-3 QSFP ?

I can change a Mellanox CX353A - ConnectX-3 QSFP from IB to Ethernet in a Windows GUI environment, but i’m not finding a way to do it trough Powershell or cmd mlxconfig.

Can someone help me on this?

Thanks in advanced.

Hello Carlos,

Thank you for posting your inquiry on the Mellanox Community.

Based on the information provided, as mentioned in the WinOF UM, Section Port Configuration-> https://docs.mellanox.com/display/WINOFv55053000/Port+Configuration

you can change the port-type with the ‘mlxconfig’ utility which comes with MFT (Mellanox Firmware Tools) → https://www.mellanox.com/downloads/MFT/WinMFT_x64_4_14_2_17.exe

As mentioned, changing port-type through ‘mlxconfig’ is supported when running f/w version 2.32.5000 and above on the adapter.

Thank you,
