Good afternoon
I have fine Mellanox/Nvidia ConnectX-5 EN card running firmware version: 16.33.1048
root@kg-virt01:~# mlxconfig -d /dev/mst/mt4119_pciconf0 query
Device #1:
----------
Device type: ConnectX5
Name: MCX516A-CCA_Ax
Description: ConnectX-5 EN network interface card; 100GbE dual-port QSFP28; PCIe3.0 x16; tall bracket; ROHS R6
Device: /dev/mst/mt4119_pciconf0
My question is if and if so how I should install the drivers from Mellanox/Nvidia.
For storage right now I am using NFS but I hope to in the future run NFS over ROCE(v2).
Looking at the latest driver (either the full package or only the ethernet drivers) I can see that the latest version is 5.6-2.0.9.0 and that only supports Debian 11.2
Proxmox VE 7.2 is based on Debian 11.3 and it seems to take it's time before new drivers are released.
What is recommended here, should I use the driver that came with the OS or is the some way to install the drivers from Nvidia/Mellanox?
