Redfish interface for changing Network Link Type Ethernet/Infiniband

Infrastructure & Networking BlueField
1

I am currently working with a BlueField-3 (BF3) DPU and need to transition the network link type from InfiniBand to Ethernet.

While I have reviewed the available documentation, I have been unable to find the specific procedure for performing this change directly through the BMC interface. Could you please provide the necessary steps, or point me toward the specific section of the management guide that covers link-type configuration via the BMC?

Specifically, I am looking for:

  • The relevant CLI commands (via IPMI/Redfish) to modify the LINK_TYPE parameters.

Thank you for your assistance.

Kind regards,

Radek

This is documented in our BMC UM, ref link: BlueField Modes of Operation Configuration - NVIDIA Docs.

Thank you

The existing documentation doesn’t seem to cover the Redfish behavior for this setting.
I’ve confirmed that I can update the configuration through the BMC Host UI without issue; however, the Redfish interface is blocking the change with a ‘read-only’ error.

Do you know if there any other interface for that?

Kind Regards
Radek
