Hi Team,
Whether “NVIDIA ConnectX-7 Adapter Cards Firmware Release v28.45.1200” (NVIDIA ConnectX-7 Adapter Cards Firmware Release Notes v28.45.1200 - NVIDIA Docs) supports NVMe OF ?

If supported, can I use the procedure in this link (EnterpriseSupport) to verify NVMe ?
Thanks in advance.

I want to confirm the webpage to install ConnectX-7 firmware. So can I prefer this page. Updating the ConnectX-7 Firmware — NVIDIA DGX H100/H200 Firmware Update Guide ?

I am even checking for Crypto features supported in MCX75310AAC-NEAT in same firmware. But the firmware release note are common to all the Adaptor cards. Could you please confirm the Crypto supported in the firmware for MCX75310AAC-NEAT.

Thankyou @gilh
