Quick Start Guide

lab@ubuntu:~$ 

sudo modprobe bnxt_en

lab@ubuntu:~$ 

ifconfig -a

Note the name of the interface slot that is plugged into the PS225. 

lab@ubuntu:/$ 

sudo ifconfig enP8p1s0f0np0 up 192.168.1.10 

c. On the host, insmod the bnxt_en.ko module. See the PS225 Quick Start Guide to find out where to get/build this 

module for the x86 host. The following command operates on the example setup. 

byang@byang-PowerEdge-2950:~$ 

sudo insmod ~/temp/bnxt_en-1.8.29/bnxt_en.ko 

byang@byang-PowerEdge-2950:~$ 

sudo ifconfig enp8s0f0 192.168.1.20 up ; ping 192.168.1.10

d. Access between the host and PS225 should be now available. 

12. Allow the PS225 to reach the Internet, so the user can use apt install to retrieve software from the Internet. We configure 

the host to forward using the following commands:

NOTE:

If your PS225's SFP28 port is connected to the Internet (for example, via a switch and DHCP server), then there 

is no need for host to forward Internet traffic. Skip the following steps. 

NOTE:

"eno2" is the regular Ethernet interface that the host uses to access the Internet while enp8s0f0 is the first PF 

towards the PS225 card. On different machines these could be different. Adjust the commands based on the 

specific setup.

a. On the example host, the result from ifconfig is as follows:
