Download Download NVIDIA MBF2H512C-AESO DPU Firmware 24.35.3502-LTS for OS Independent Free

Firmware is added at the time of manufacture to run user programs on the device and can be thought of as the software that allows the hardware to run. Embedded firmware is used to control the functionality of various hardware devices and systems, much like a computer’s operating system (OS) controls the functionality of software applications. Firmware can be written to read-only memory (ROM), erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM), or flash memory.

NVIDIA BlueField-2 DPU delivers innovative acceleration, security and efficiency to every host. BlueField-2 data center infrastructure combines the power of NVIDIA ConnectX-6 Dx with programmable Arm cores and hardware offload for software-defined storage, networking, security and management workloads.

NVIDIA BlueField-2 also delivers superior performance, security and lower total cost of ownership for cloud computing platforms, enabling organizations to efficiently build and operate virtualized, containerized and bare metal infrastructure at scale.

Bug fixes:

– Fixed an issue that prevented the power controller control bits in the slot control register from returning to their default values ​​when forcing an unplug sequence.
– Fixed assertion of ext_synd at 0x8ce5 during power cycle for virtio chassis on custom servers with independent power supplies.

Known issues:

– Unexpected system behavior may occur if drivers are loaded during reset.
– Firmware reset sync 1 is currently not working properly. Sometimes, running it doesn’t reset the device.
– CRC is included in the traffic byte counter as a port byte counter.
– NVIDIA BlueField-2 multi-host environment does not support multiple PFs. Setting 4 PFs (mlxconfig NUM_OF_PF-4) in a multi-host environment may trigger firmware assertions and ARcatVerM may hang.
– FCS indicates incorrect calculation when packet is decapsulated.
– The “max_shaper_rate” configuration query via QEEC mlxreg returns the value converted to hardware granularity.
– Live migration of MPV-affiliated function pairs is not supported when the port number is changed. Each function should remain on the same port number before migration.
– GTP encapsulation (flex parser profile 3) is limited to NIC domains only. Encapsulation in the FDB domain will render a length of 0 in the GTP header.
– Asynchronously restarting Arm while the RSHIM driver is active may cause poison completion to return, causing the host to crash.
– Some pre-OS environments may fail when a hotplug operation is detected during the boot phase.
– Server cannot recover after configuring PCI_SWITCH_EMULATION_NUM_PORT to 32 and restarting.
– When using 3rd party devices (such as Paragon) at 25GbE speed, the 25GbE speed must be configured in enforcing mode.
– Sometimes, when a logical link goes up, the link recovery counter is incremented by 1.
– RX RDMA flow table does not support IPoIB forwarding operation.

About the network adapter driver:

Once connected, the operating system typically installs a universal driver that helps the computer recognize the newly connected device.

However, if you want to take advantage of all the features offered by your network adapter, you must apply the appropriate software. This task also allows the computer to correctly identify all device characteristics such as manufacturer, chipset, technology, etc.

Updating your adapter’s driver and utility versions may improve overall performance and stability, increase transfer speeds, fix different compatibility issues and some network-related bugs, and bring various other changes.

To install this version, simply grab the package, unzip it if necessary, run the installer, and follow the on-screen instructions. Once completed, don’t forget to reboot your system and reconnect your network adapter to ensure all changes take effect correctly.

Without further ado, if you plan to apply this version, click on the download button and install the package. Also, please visit our website as often as possible so you never miss a new release.
