Congratulations on the new AsterNOS-VPP_V6.1_R0101P02 release! The added features and improvements look great — especially the enhancements around MAP-BR, DHCP/ND security, and MVRP support.
I would like to ask whether the x86 platform also includes support for Mellanox ConnectX-5 NICs, specifically the MCX516A-CDAT model. Could you please confirm compatibility?
Thank you!
ahmad maimun najib Thank you for your interest in our AsterNOS-VPP solution and for asking this excellent technical question!
The answer is YES: the Mellanox ConnectX-5 series (MCX516A-CDAT) is fully compatible with our AsterNOS-VPP solution.
We've confirmed the full technology stack compatibility, and here are the key points:
- AsterNOS-VPP requires a DPDK-supported NIC. According to official NVIDIA documentation, the Mellanox ConnectX-5 adapter family is explicitly supported by the mlx5 Poll Mode Driver for DPDK.
- The VPP project itself officially supports the mlx5 driver. We can confirm from VPP's official release notes that support for Mellanox mlx5 receive and transmit was explicitly added as early as VPP 20.05. Our current version (based on VPP 24.02) is built on this mature and stable support.
Your NIC is fully compatible. We hope this helps!
zhonghaojiang@asterfusion.com Thank you for the detailed clarification — that’s great to hear.
I would like to ask one more question:
Does Mellanox ConnectX-5 support work only in the commercial/enterprise edition of AsterNOS-VPP?
I tested the free version, but the Mellanox NIC is not detected inside sonic-vpp.
The PCI device is visible in the Sonic system and even inside syncd, but VPP does not detect the hardware interface at all.
Is this a limitation of the free edition, or is there an additional step required to enable mlx5 support?
Thank you!
Thank you for the detailed feedback!
To answer your question directly: No, this is not a limitation of the free edition.
The issue is simply a matter of timing. AsterNOS scans and binds hardware interfaces only during the first system initialization. I suspect the VM was installed first and the NIC was added later, so the system missed the opportunity to configure it.
The simplest solution is to redeploy the VM.
During the fresh installation (ensure the NIC is attached before the first boot), the system will automatically detect the ConnectX-5 and bind it to VPP correctly. No manual configuration is required.
Let us know if a fresh install solves it for you!
zhonghaojiang@asterfusion.com I have already tried a completely fresh installation — including reinstalling the host OS — but unfortunately the Mellanox NICs are still not detected by SONiC/VPP inside the VM.
When I use an Intel I350 NIC, everything works normally with no issues. This strongly suggests that the problem is specific to the Mellanox ConnectX-5 passthrough on this setup.
Below I also include the logs and the current SONiC/VPP status for reference.
