NVIDIA Mellanox MCX653106A-ECA SmartNIC Firmware 20.25.6000

Changes and New Features:

- Added support for creating software managed steering tables in eSwitch/FDB

Bug Fixes:

- Fixed an issue that prevented the firmware from reseting the port speed to its default speed HDR due to a TEARDOWN_HCA with open resources event that led to a bad state in firmware, where attributes were not reset to their default between drivers.
- Link flapping and packet loss during High/Low temperature changes.
- When using a copper splitter cable up to 2m length in HDR100 mode, traffic may drop.
- On rare occasions, HDR link may not raise properly due to temperature changes.
- In a rare scenario when the driver is executing the "2err" command and the QP is in SQ drain state, the firmware might post event of broken WQ instead of sending error CQEs on all the WQEs.

About Network Adapter Drivers:

When connected, the operating system usually installs a generic driver that helps the computer to recognize the newly attached device.

However, proper software must be applied if you want to make use of all features that the network adapter has available. This task also allows computers to properly recognize all device characteristics such as manufacturer, chipset, technology, and others.

Updating the adapter's drivers and utilities version might improve overall performance and stability, increase transfer speeds, fix different compatibility problems and several network-related errors, as well as bring various other changes.

To install this release, simply get the package, extract it if necessary, run the setup, and follow the instructions displayed on-screen. When done, don't forget to perform a system restart and reconnect the network adapter to make sure that all changes take effect properly.

Without further ado, if you intend to apply this version, click the download button and install the package. Moreover, check with our website as often as possible so that you don't miss a single new release.
