Verify the Adapter Installation (Linux)

Language:

To verify the new network interface instances for the adapter, use the following Linux commands: nmcli, ip, and ethtool. For example:

To use the nmcli command, type:

# nmcli | grep -i mel -A 1 -B 1

The output should be similar to this:

enp59s0f0: unmanaged
        "Mellanox MT28800"
        ethernet (mlx5_core), EC:0D:9A:D4:29:2C, hw, mtu 4500
--
enp59s0f1: unmanaged
        "Mellanox MT28800"
        ethernet (mlx5_core), EC:0D:9A:D4:29:2D, hw, mtu 4500

To use the ip and ethtoolcommands, type:

# ip link show

The output should be similar to this:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
