Hi,


Just would like to understand, are you connecting to the Host 2 normal ethernet port? Can you provide me the detail diagram of host1 to host2 connection?

Hi @JohnT_Intel ,

I am connecting N6001 in Host1 and Mellanox NIC in Host2.

In Host1:
Application : HSSI, HSSISTATS

In Host2:
Application : ifconfig port0(interface), tcpdump on port0(interface). -- interface handled using Mellanox driver.

Its not normal ethernet (RJ45). I am using QSFP module on both the end devices connected via MTP cable. (Optical cable)
