The ports of switch Mellanox MLNX-OS MSB7700 are InfiniBand ports as default. I want to change the switch ports from InfiniBand to Ethernet. I follow the guide of user manual and use the following commands:

IB [standalone: master] (config) # system profile vpi-single-switch

% Profile vpi-single-switch is not a valid profile

Does the switch Mellanox MLNX-OS MSB7700 support vpi mode? Or do I need to buy a special licence?

MSB7700 is not a VPI switch , which mean it can only run as IB mode , no Ethernet support

If you want use GW product, the can use MSX6710G
